I am not a doctor so it would not be right for me to say yes or no concerning the taking of any drug. This particular drug is part of the Steroid drugs that are out there.
You are aware that anything you take or ingest goes directly to your milk which the baby then absorbs. This being a Steroid I would want to consult a doctor before taking it. I would also assume this being a in the family of Steroid drugs that it is only available by prescription.
If this is so; does the prescribing doctor know you are a breastfeeding mother? If not I would suggest you consult with the doctor and advise that you are a breastfeeding mom before taking this drug or any other drugs including over the counter medications.

What ever a breast feeding mother takes in medication will be passed on to the infant. So it is important to let your doctor know when they prescribe you a medication that you are breast feeding. They are not assuming that all mothers breastfeed because until recently it had fallen out of fashion. OUr ancestor when going to the doc it was always assumed they were breastfeeding..it was a different time. So it's up to you to alert your doctor. If you didn't and have picked up the presciption already and now wondering or even if you starting taking, it is imperitive you call your doctor immediately to say you failed to let him/her know you are breast feeding and will this affect the baby adversely.
