Lozwo,
Nasonex (mometasone) is probably ok to use during breastfeeding. It is considered a medium potency steroid. Following topical application to the skin, less than 0.7% is systemically absorbed over an 8 hour period. It is extremely unlikely mometasone would be excreted into human milk in clinically relevant levels following topical or intranasal administration.

Lozwo,
Endone is completely out of plasma and milk in 18-36 hours. The Panedine forte is completely out in 18 hours.
Cipro as an ear drop is minimally absorbed and should not pose a problem.
Augmentin is the lowest rating of L1, only about 1% of your dose transfers into milk. With any antibiotic monitor your infant for vomiting, diarrhea, rash and thrush.

Ear infection
Hi there,
I've had a terrible ear infection and have been given the following medications and so I'm just wanting to know their safety as I am breastfeeding my two year old currently.
Endone 5mg and panedine forte - I stopped feeding during the time I took these and fed 24 hours after the last panedine forte I took and 48 hours after the Endone ... How long are these in the system ?
Ciprofloxacin ear drops - I've been advised to take 5 drops twice a day
Augmentin Duo Forte - I've been advised to take two courses (ten days)
Thanks !Tags: None
