Is it allowed to take Tamoxifen Citrate during lactation? |
|
|
Anti-estrogen drug with anticancer effects. May inhibit lactation. It is not safe for the mother to continue BF whenever a risk of residual tumor is likely, which actually has been the reason for using this drug. Once any risk had disappeared (later on, or after a future pregnancy) it is convenient to resume BF. |
