A member asked:

Can i take phenazopyridine while still breastfeeding my baby?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Should be okay.: There is no data on the excretion of Phenazopyridine into human milk. Use for uti's should be short term. Breastfeeding should be safe. Alert your pediatrician about this and he/she may guide your through your breastfeeding.
