If I am breastfeeding and using an antibiotic, can I give my baby a probiotic? What interval should be kept between feeding and taking the medicine?

Hello, I need to take duomox 1g and I am a nursing mother. The drug is supposedly safe for the child, but I read that it can change his intestinal flora, can you give him a probiotic at this time? Child 1.5 years. Should feeding breaks be maintained? This is not in the leaflet. Thank you

The general rule for the use of medicines, including antibiotics, during feeding is to take the drug immediately after feeding the baby, never just before feeding. You can give a probiotic to your child 5 drops a day. e.g. Dicoflor: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/107702/dicoflor-baby-krople/apteki The penetration of amoxicillin (Duomox) into milk is small. Amoxicillin has been classified as safe during feeding. Indeed, an antibiotic can disrupt the composition of the child's bacterial microflora and cause mild reactions such as looser stool or mild allergic reactions. In most cases, the onset of any symptom has never been so strong that medical consultation is necessary. Through the portal, you can compare the prices of a drug or other preparation available without a prescription in online pharmacies and order the drug with home delivery or collection at the pharmacy.
