Hello,
I currently take 50mg of mercaptopurine once daily and 1000mg of pentasa 4 times daily. My doctors agree that the pentasa is safe during breast feeding, but disagree about the mercaptopurine. The national institute of health's lactmed website says it is "probably accepable". I would really like to continue breast feeding and am looking for some clarification.
Thank you.
