Breastfeeding and sulphasalazine

Lolly_loo

Has anyone had an experience with Breastfeeding and sulphasalazine? My doctor says it’s safe to breastfeed and take my sulphasalazine but I’m a bit wary, just needing some advice from people that have used it and how they’ve got on when breastfeeding.

I've no experience of this as I've never done sulf and I can't recall another thread on the topic but, according to Versus Arthritis, it's OK. https://www.versusarthritis.org/about-arthritis/treatments/drugs/sulfasalazine/
