Dr Hale or Newman please!!  Just got a call from a mom who is 36 weeks
pregnant with her second child, breast fed her first for a year and plans
to breast feed this one.  She is using Alphagon (Brimonidine Tartrate)
for her glaucoma (and has been her whole pregnancy) and is now being told
by her OB that she cannot breast feed while on this medication.
Any thoughts....info??
TIA
