Is it allowed to take Ampicillin Trihydrate during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

Ampicillin is excreted in breast milk in clinically insignificant amounts (Rowe, 2013, Mylonas, 2011, Zhang, 1997, Fulton, 1992, Campbell 1991, Matsuda 1984), much lower than the dose used for newborns and infants ( Chin, 2000; Reali, 2005). No side effects have been observed in infants whose mothers were taking it except for some episodes of diarrhea or candidiasis due to altered intestinal flora (Chin, 2000). The possible negativity of cultures in febrile infants whose mothers take antibiotics should be taken into account, as well as the possibility of gastroenteritis due to altered intestinal flora (Benyamini 2005, Ito 1993, Kafetzis 1981).

I have been urinating more often and having the urge to go more at night. It makes me feel dehydrated and my lips would chapped more often. My urine has a strong smell to it. However, it has reduce some of my acne! I like that though. Other than that I will be back at the clinic again for my urine check!
