Hello,

I need to know about 3 drugs and their compatability with breastfeeding:

Psorcon (diflorasone diacetate)
Dovonex
Diprolene

A mom that rented a pump from me has psoriasis.  It was better during
her pregnancy.  Now that baby is 14 weeks old, it has come back and is
covering her whole body.  She has been put on these medications and has
weaned the baby.  She was very upset at having to stop breastfeeding.  I
told her I would ask you wise people for information (and citations),
and she was very greatful.  She is delighted at the possibility of being
able to breastfeed again if the drugs are compatable.

Any help that you all can give is greatly appreciated!  Does anyone have
any idea why this psoriasis has worsened during lactation?

Thank you SO much!
