Patient's question:
Just 15 days after giving birth, I had an inflamed wisdom tooth and took medication for six days, followed by Cephalexin for another two days before having the tooth extracted. How long after that can I breastfeed?Doctor's answer:
I'm honored to help you! During breastfeeding, drugs metabolized by the mother can be excreted in breast milk and affect the newborn, leading to various adverse reactions. Both ornidazole and clindamycin should be avoided for at least 72 hours before breastfeeding. It is recommended that you drink more water to enhance drug metabolism. The above advice is for the question "I have been taking ornidazole and clindamycin for six days due to an inflamed wisdom tooth after giving birth for 15 days." I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
