We have a new OB in our practice and we are having a debate about whether to give postpartum women who are breastfeeding po Motrin. We have always done it here and it is about the best thing for afterpains, but the new OB says he doesn't give it. Neither one of them could give supporting documentation, so I am asking what is the general consensus for you guys. If not, why? They asked me to see what the list thought about it. Thanks from West Virginia. Vicki

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
