Which medications and supplements are compatible with breastfeeding?
When you’re nursing, it’s important to ensure that prescription medications, vaccines, over-the-counter medications, or herbal supplements are safe both for you, your milk supply, and your baby.
La Leche League Leaders are unable to provide medical advice. We recommend you ask your pharmacist about whether or not a medicine or supplement is right for you. You may also refer to the Infant Risk Center for up-to-date information. If you can’t find your answer on their main site, you can also call them or post on their forums.
