Overview

Breastfeeding is the ideal nutrition for the nowborn and infants and infants but has also many other irreplaceable advantages for mother and child. The positive trend of an increasing prevalence of breast feeding and prolongation of its period is associated with an increasing number of mothers who take drugs while breastfeeding.Doctors lack the necessary information which will enable them to decide responsibly on such important questions as premature termination of breastfeeding on account of the mother’s pharmacotherapy. The objective of the present paper is to inform on factors which influence the passage of drugs into milk and on possible drug-induced effects in the breastfed infant. A list of some drugs is given where the risk for the breastfed child is known.

Key words:
breastfeeding - drugs - undesirable effects.
