Hi Latnetters:

A 32- yearl old WIC client who is breastfeeding a year old child has been
advised to take propylthiouracil for hyperthyroidism.  The physician has
okayed continued bfing but the mother refuses to take the medication due to
warnings on the medication packaging.

Any information regarding the safety of this medication, Dr. Jack or another
expert. Thanks in advance for your kind assistance.
