I just heared a TV commercial (on in the other room while I was checking my
emails this am) for Diflucan. They clearly state "do not use if you are
nursing"....I know that this is CYA for the drug company, as is the info on
all of their package inserts, but we should all know what the public is being
told. According to Hale, it is rated L2, one of the "safer" drugs for use in
lactation and he has 4 pages of info that you can use to evaluate use in a
given mom/baby.
