Got a telephone call from an LLLL who was asked by a breastfeeding mom if she can breastfeed with olanzapine. She has an 11 day old baby, totally breastfed. She has suffered from Obsessive-compulsive disorder and her Psychiatrist has just prescribed this medication to "allow her to sleep better". She did not take it during her pregnancy and doesn't want to begin taking it unless she can breastfeed with it. If this is not possible, are there any other meds she could use - she asked.
