Another great resource

Tom Hale, M.D., author of Medications and More and breastfeeding advocate advises mothers about risks to their babies relating to medications used during lactation. Visit this site to learn more: http://www.ttuhsc.edu/infantrisk/

Many medications are safe while breastfeeding but because of FDA requirements for testing, the labels do not really tell us which are safe and which are not. This is why his work, and that of the Pregnancy Risk Line are so important. This is a great resource.

You can also call the Pregnancy Risk Line at (801) 328-2229 (BABY) or (800) 822-2229 BABY). Best Blogger Tips
