Breast donor milk and antidepressants

[Rita]

I am currently investigating getting milk from a friend of mine as I have an insufficient milk supply to breastfeed my baby effectively. I am on serdep50 (50mg) and motilium (for milk supply; potentially switching to eglynol) and my friend if currently on ciprolex 10mg. would it be safe to use her breast milk? My baby is going on 6weeks (born at 36weeks) with an immature digestive system and suffering from constipation due to formula use which I had to introduce on day 4. Looking forward to your reply.
Thanks.

Dear Rita,

I want to make sure we are on the same page, is your friend on Ciprolex or Cipralex (Escitalopram)?
