Over half of newborn infants begin life breastfeeding. Nearly all drugs ingested by nursing mothers appear in their milk; amount is 1 to 2 per cent of the mother's dose. Drugs for most maternal conditions are safe for the nursing infant. Information is presented to permit nursing mothers who need medication to nurse safely.
