Is it safe to take the anxiety medications Inderal, Etilaam, and Paxidep while breastfeeding my 6.5-month-old baby, or is Amitop a safer and better alternative?

Asked by Female, 25 · 9 days ago

Taking multiple medications like Inderal (propranolol), Etilaam (etizolam), and Paxidep (paroxetine) while breastfeeding requires caution. Etizolam can cause drowsiness in your 6.5-month-old, while propranolol and paroxetine are generally considered safer options with monitoring. Switching to Amitop (amitriptyline) might simplify your treatment, but it also has sedative effects. Neither option is completely risk-free, so it is very important to discuss these choices with your doctor. They can help find the safest, most effective balance for you and your sweet baby.
