The Breastfeeding Network Drugs in Breastmilk information service 3.57

This is a page for the Breastfeeding Network Drugs in Breastmilk Information service. You can also find information on our wide range of factsheets available for free on our website
https://www.breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/drugs-factsheets/

If you have a specific question about the safety of medication or medical treatments while you are breastfeeding and you can't find the information you need on the factsheets you can ask in a private message to the page or by emailing wendy.jones@breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk

This page is run by a team of trained volunteers who all have access to read and respond to messages. We monitor the page to ensure that only evidence based information is shared, this is to ensure the safety of people asking for information. Every situation is different and as a trained pharmacist Wendy is insured and qualified to answer questions but others may not be. For this reason we ask you to please refrain from posting any general comments about medication on this page. Please remember that as volunteers we will do our best to answer your query as quickly as possible but that it may take a short while for us to reply, especially at busy times. If you message us we may contact you in the future for evaluation purposes. If you do not wish to be contacted about evaluation please let us know.

The information provided is taken from various reference sources. It is provided as a guideline. No responsibility can be taken by the author or the Breastfeeding Network for the way in which the information is used. Clinical decisions remain the responsibility of medical and breastfeeding practitioners.
