I have a question for the good minds here.  Ethics plays a big part in what
we do as IBCLCs.  Do you think it is ethical to give a mother a way of
obtaining a drug without a prescription that is only available in the U.S. by
prescription through a compounding pharmacy?

I'd really like some feedback on this, because I think it may be one of those
gray areas that doesn't really have a good solid answer.  What do y'all
think?  Would giving a mom information about obtaining a drug overseas compromise
our integrity as an IBCLC?  As an RN?  Or is it a non-issue since she can find
it for herself on the internet if she is so inclined?
