Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
AKT 4 is safe in pregnancy.
You should take it as tuberculosis should be treated in time and with proper medications.Pyridoxine is safe in pregnancy and has no adverse effects on the fetus.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
