Patient's question:
Just 15 days after giving birth, I had an inflamed wisdom tooth and took medication for six days, followed by Cephalexin, and then had the tooth extracted. After that, I took medication for two more days. How long after that can I breastfeed?Doctor's answer:
I am honored to help you! During breastfeeding, drugs metabolized by the mother can be effective for newborns through breast milk, 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 because of an inflamed wisdom tooth 15 days after giving birth." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
