For the last month, i've been taking xanax (alprazolam) (0.5) daily for my panic disorder.i am breastfeeding and usually wait 4 hours to nurse. is this too short?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Breast feeding: is not recommended when taking Xanax (alprazolam) as it may potentially affect the infant and there are other drugs for panic disorder that are safer with breast feeding.
