Hello . I had come down with an episode of food poisoning while on travel and have been prescribed ornidazole 500mg ofloxacin 250 mg once a day . It has been 24 hours since I stopped the medicines . Is it safe to resume breastfeeding now since I haven't pumped and thrown the milk ? My child is 13 months and feeds only about twice at night . Also I did feed my child once after medication after 12 hours but stopped since I got scared . Please let me know if it's wrong Thank you
