A member asked:
I have bipolar ii and will be on lamotrogine, guanfacine and wellbutrin (bupropion) post-pregnancy. should i breastfeed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ask pediatrician: Most medications come with warnings not to take when breast feeding even though the amount of drug found in the milk is very small. Your pediatrician and psychiatrist and you need to discuss the possible risks involved so you can make an informed decision.There are also risks of post partum depression if you stop your meds and breast feed.

Bipolar 2 disorder. Extreme anxiety bad sleep cycles. On wellbutrin, topamax, abilify, (aripiprazole) clozazepam , temazepam , zopliclone ? What now?
Zoloft is very good for my anxiety but higher doses made me very apathetic. My psychiatrist added abilify since my family history of bipolar disorder. However I wanted something to increase my energy and motivation so he added Wellbutrin. Thoughts??
