A member asked:
I'm breastfeeding twins, but having terrible back pain. if i take a muscle relaxer, how long until it is safe to breastfeed again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
24-48 hrs: If you only took one muscle relaxer pill, 24 hours should be enough to clear the drug adequately, if you took more, I would wait 2 days rather than one day
