The amount secreted into breastmilk is small and the effects to the infant are minimal.

Please refer to Mediations and Mothers milk http://neonatal.ttuhsc.edu/lact/, Thomas Hale, PhD, eighth edition for extensive information on medication in milk. We must remember the risk vs the benefit, formula is a drug too and the risks of formula.

According to the PDR, there are no safe medications to take when breastfeeding.........
