I was diagnosed with strep 10 days ago and just finished my amoxicillin. My throat still hasn't gotten any better and I went back to the doctor. She prescribed omnicef, but couldn't verify if it was safe for breastfeeding...she simply just stated "ask the pharmacist". Is it safe to take while breastfeeding? My daughter is 6 months old.
