Can you please indicate whether you agree with this mom's HCP who suggested pumping/dumping after the following:
"I am on two 10 mg norcos every four to six hours during the day and two percocet 5/325 at night every four hours."
The rx is for severe nerve pain for which she will undergo surgery in a week. In the meantime, her supply has dwindled terribly and I cannot tell whether the suggestion to pump/dump is warranted under the circumstances. Her HCP indicated a concern with dependence in the infant (10 weeks), though from what I see in your book it doesn't seem this is of great concern. However, the dose and chronic use may affect this issue.
Thanks a lot for the help.
