What happens if you are breastfeeding, and using blood pressure medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Depends on what you're using. The worst case scenario is to pass along the medicine to the baby and cause it to have low BP. Not all BP meds pass into the milk, though, so contemplative choice of medication is indicated.
