Question

​Which types of drug are usually compatible with breastfeeding?

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Antihistamines are usually compatible with breastfeeding as they are minimally excreted in breast milk and do not harm the baby. However, some antihistamines with sedative properties may cause drowsiness in the baby and should be used with caution.

Answer: E 
 Drugs that suppress lactation (such as bromocriptine) are sometimes used in cases where breastfeeding is not possible or recommended. However, this should only be done under medical supervision and after considering the potential risks and benefits.

Note: Antineoplastic agents and radioactive isotopes are not usually compatible with breastfeeding as they can harm the baby. Drugs of abuse are obviously not compatible with breastfeeding.
