Migraine meds and breastfeeding
My doctor prescribed amitriptyline (10mg daily x 7 days then 20mg daily), midrin, and norco 5-325mg. Is daiky amitriptyline and a dose (2 pills) of midrin safe while breastfeeding a 2 year old? My ob gyn prescribed the same strength norco right after I had my baby and my migraines started so I know that medication is pretty safe taken in moderation. My concern is really the midrin and amitriptyline combo.

Hi..... Self-care measures can help ease the pain of a migraine headache.
Try muscle relaxation exercises. Relaxation may help ease the pain of a migraine headache.
Relaxation techniques may include progressive muscle relaxation, meditation or yoga.
Get enough sleep, but don't oversleep. Get an adequate amount of sleep each night. It's best to go to bed and wake up at regular times, as well.
Rest and relax. If possible, rest in a dark, quiet room when you feel a headache coming on
