Why Mothers' Medication Matters addresses common misunderstandings that surround the use of medication during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Offering evidence-based, expert and helpful advice, this is essential reading for mothers and healthcare providers.
Prescribing medication for breastfeeding women can be complex, and often there are no studies to show whether drugs are safe for lactating women. Yet mothers often need medication: whether short term use of painkillers, mental health drugs, or drugs to treat chronic conditions
Wendy Jones gives mothers and those treating them the information they need to make decisions about medication, while allaying fears that many have about adverse effects on babies of drugs passing through breastmilk as well as explaining the cautions on patient information leaflets in all medication boxes. Why Mothers’ Medication Matters is a practical, reassuring book that aims to put
mothers and babies at the heart of their own care.
