Hi,

I am on antibiotics for bronchitis and I it seems I have less milk. Do antibiotics dry you up? I am not taking any over the counter medicine...
thanks

some antibiotics are not good during breastfeeding. What are you taking?

tetracycline,

but I've decided to stop, it's not worth compromising the milk supply or the affect on my daughter

Can you take amoxicillin? I took it while nursing in a fairly high dose and had no problems. If you need it to get over the bronchitis then that would be an option.
