I have anxiety relating to dental procedures due to negative past experiences. I am in need of some dental work that will span 4 or 5 appointments over a couple months. My dentist has offered to write a prescription for some anti-anxiety medication to take prior to the procedures. She typically prescribes Valium, but can also offer Lorazepam. I also have a 9 month old who breastfeeds frequently (every 2.5-3 hours during the day). Which medication would be ideal to take before my procedures in this situation? Will there be any effect on my milk supply or need to pump and discard?
Thank you for your help.
