A member asked:

I just finished the 5 days course of taking ciproflaxin antibiotic. how long should i wait after last pill to breastfeed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

OK to breastfeed now: According to the Academy of Pediatrics, ciprofloxacin is listed as a medication that is usually compatible with breast feeding. The half life of the drug is 4-6 hours, so by 6 hours, less than half the med is remaining in your system, and by 24 hours, virtually none. http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/pediatrics/108/3/776.full.pdf
