My daughter, exclusively breastfeeding a 16# 5 month old, is. being treated for tonsillitis and an ear infection with Cefdinir 300 mg twice a day. She has a history of diarrhea and a rash with Penicillin and has not been given it since the episode as a young child. After three doses of Celdinir, she has had two fairly soft, not loose, stools in the past few hours. She has been taking probiotics since beginning the antibiotic.
Out of town, she was seen by a NP who is not breastfeeding supportive at a CVS minute clinic. With her history of a reaction to Penicillin, would you suggest she discontinue the Cefdinir or continue it monitoring the frequency and looseness of the stools. If it is to be discontinued, what medication would you recommend.
Thank you for your assistance.
