Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

Please do not panic about the medicines.

Tab Benadon is vitamin B 6 preparation and is essential vitamin. It is helpful for pregnancy as well as helps liver to tackle Rifampicin metabolism.

Secondly, Rifampicin itself is not known to be harmful for pregnancy as such. It's not known to increase the risk of abortion or fetal anomalies.
Benefits of Use of Rifampicin always out weigh the risks with the use of the medicine.

Please be in touch with your treating doctor, complete the treatment course rigorously.
Opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen.Start on Folic acid and vitamin B 12 supplements.

I hope this answer helps you.
May God bless you with a bundle of Joy.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thank.
