Is it allowed to take Nalidixic Acid during lactation? |
|
|
Hemolysis in an infant with glucose-6-phophate dehydrogenasa deficiency has been described. Avoid its use in patients suffering this disorder. Cases of drug-induced intracraneal hypertension have been reported when given to the infant. Norfloxacin would be a better option because of its lower secretion into breast milk on those cases when the use of fluorquinolones would be necessary. |
