Has anyone had any contact with moms who have had narcolepsy? I'm working
with a mom who recently delivered a 35 week premie that has this illness
(they fall asleep all the time) She has taken an amphetemine up until she
became pregnant and plans to not take this medication while she is nursing.
She has found the narcoplexy ( It's been a verrrry long day I think this is
spelled wrong) She feels that she may need to start up on medication in
order to take care of her son. Dr. Hale's book and Briggs state that
amphetemines concentrate in breastmilk so they are containdicated in nursing.
I would appreciate any information on the medication or on this condition.
Please E-mail me privately as I am so behind in reading my mail that it will
be the forth or July before I get through it.
TIA
