Metronidazole while breastfeeding

[beckyyl]

Hi all

I posted earlier but have since found out my antibiotics are due to change - I'm trying to re search online but coming across very different responses.

Has anyone taken metronidazole whilst breastfeeding a young baby and can tell me if it's safe / any reaction from baby?

Thank you x

Thank you so much! X
