Is it allowed to take Maternal Ht during lactation? |
|
|
Prolactin release has a calming effect. (It may be helpful to improve maternal BP).Choose an appropriate anti-hypertensive drug and check-up for a potential decrease on milk production by the effect of diuretics (Use a lower dose because the mammary gland acts as a secretory organ for about 1 liter a day) WHO and AAP consider hydrochlorotiazide to be a safer drug for breastfeeding. |
