It's highly unlikely, especially if you are not taking this antibiotic long-term.
The Planned Parenthood Association even states that only one antibiotic is known to make the pill less effective and that's rifampin which is a special med used to treat tuberculosis.

You should be fine. If you are still anxious about this, simply call and ask your doctor, or use a "back-up" condom while you are taking the antibiotic.
