Question
I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Isocarboxazid? Is Isocarboxazid safe for nursing mother and child? Does Isocarboxazid extracts into breast milk? Does Isocarboxazid has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Isocarboxazid influence milk supply or can Isocarboxazid decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
