  • Prevacid and breastfeeding?

    Issue: Chronic gastritis;
    Pre pregnancy treatment: lansoprazole 40mg
    Situation:
    I am breastfeeding my 2 month old baby and I need to take medicine.
    Is it safe taking lansoprazol while breastfeeding?
    If is not, raditidina/omeprazol?
    Cimetidina is a safe replacement of prevacid?

    Thanks in advance

    CCS:

    Lansoprazole, or omeprazole are fine for breastfeeding. They would be largely unabsorbed in the infants GI tract.
