Please help, particularly those with a medical background. I have a
mother who is bf (with some supplements) her 3-week-old infant.  She
smokes half a pack a day.  She has formerly been on Paxil for depression
and wants to know if she can take it again.  Lawrence says it (if I'm
reading my reference right) is 95% protein-bound by milk:plasma ratio is
1:1.

I would also like to know generally what *is* best for bf mothers who
need/want anti-depressants.  As I work with a WIC population, this comes
up a lot and therapy is rarely a viable option.  Please comment all you
experts out there.

Gratefully yours,
