Hello all,
I have had an inquiry from a 36 week pregnant mother who is taking the following medicines for migraines:
Amitriptyline HCL TA 10mg (ACT) 1 tablet nocte
Sandomigran 0.5mg (pizotifen) 2 tablets nocte.
She has been taking them for about 2 years. Before this, she would have migraines on a daily basis.
Are these medicines compatible with breastfeeding and is the combination of the two likely to have an effect on her newborn baby?
Regards,
Barbara
