Can i take oxycodone while breastfeeding?

Oxycodone: Oxycodone is expressed in breastmilk and can make your infant lethargic. If you need pain control consult your doctor for a possible substitute drug.

If absolutely needed: It does get into breast milk so it can affect the baby and is not recommended to take it while breast feeding unless absolutely necessary.
