Thanks!

Subject: Methergine
I am a hospital Lactation Consultant and I just received an e-mail today about an FDA warning on methergine and breastfeeding. Don't know how late I am in finding this out or if it's still very new. I did check the FDA website and it does indeed say that this is a new warning issued and that the recommendation is to discontinue breastfeeding for 12 hours after last dose is given. Does anyone know if Dr. Hale has had anything to say about this? In his latest book, it is listed as an L2. What are other hospitals doing?
