A member asked:
Am taking lonart malaria tablets whilst breastfeeding, will it harm my baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not recommended : Most malaria treatments and preventive regimens do not recommend use while breastfeeding. Depending on length of needed and age of baby you could "pump and dump" to ensure milk productiion continues until treatment is done. A full discussion with health care provided is needed to get the best and safest regimen.
