Vicodin & Breastmilk?!


Question:

Vicodin & Breastmilk?

I am taking vicodin for a really bad tooth ache just untill I get to a dentist tomorrow. I know it wears off in 6 hours, does that mean I can breastfeed my son 6 hours after I take one? I am going to be taking one every six hours ( or after I breastfeed- if I can) and he has never had formula before - what do I do to be safe?


Answers:

It is ok to take Vicodin and breastfeed. I just had my son 4 months ago and I was given a prescription of vicodin in the hospital. Like you I also breastfeed. I talked to the doctor and they said that it will not effect the baby. Hope you get to feeling better!
