From Medications and Mothers milk book : "Topamax is a new anticonvulsant used in controlling refractory partial seizures. Very little is known about this new product except that it is secreted in the milk of rodents in unreported amounts. Its ability to penetrate the CNS, its rather long half life and its effect on reducing cognition would not make this a preferred product for breastfeeding mothers nor their infants. The potential benefit of the mother must be weighed against to potential risk to the infant." ~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~** Cindy Curtis, RN, IBCLC mailto:[log in to unmask] http://www.breastfeedingonline.com *********************************************** The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
