A member asked:

Would it be safe to take one 350 mg carisoprodol while breastfeeding? will it effect my 5 week old son?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

WHY????: Why in the world would you take this for any reason? A single dose of this addicting tranquilizer is not likely to harm anyone. The baby may become sleepy for a few hours. Avoid any unneeded meds , especially while nursing.

Dr Friedlander and another doctor agreed
