THANK YOU! This helped alot and I sent it to my Mom, who is a home-birth midwife and uses sights like this to prescribe for her clients. Thank you again. I have mastitis and am in some serious pain, but I wanted to make sure that the antibiotics and motrin were safe before I took it. This made my day.

You can also go to my group Medications and Mother's Milk. Our info is based on the work of Dr Thomas Hale, a leading pharmacologist and big time breastfeeding supporter. His info is a compilation of studies, and his info goes into the 1/2 life of the med, alternatives available, effects on mom and baby. Click on my siggy for more info.
