Breastfeeding while on medication
Hi mummies..if you're on cough & cold medications with antibiotics, would you pump and discard breastmilk? Or would you still feed it to baby?

Most antibiotics are safe but should let dr know that you’re breastfeeding so that they can prescribe the safe ones. Most antihistamines are okay. But I would be cautious about opioid-containing cough medications like codeine! Therefore it’s safer to just tell the dr about breastfeeding
