Excuse me carol brussel perhaps you need to refer to Hales new edition and
the AAP, which contraindicates lithium with breastfeeding. I have worked with
many patients using Lithium and would not want my baby receiving 30-40 % or
more of my dose in the immediate pp period if I was an uncontrolled Manic who
probably would not come in to have levels tested regularly, due to flight of
ideas and activity. ~lithium is a very toxic drug to many body systems. I
should rephrase mom and baby need to be closely monitored, and there are
safer alternatives, thankyou, maybe you should have used capitals to express
your anger... Lisa Mooney
