My OB recently prescribed me Orlissa. There is not a lot of information out there as far as nursing while taking it. Also the side effects have not been great. Should I be taking this while nursing??

Hi, it is very difficult to advise on taking medications while nursing. I found this on the Orilissa website (I guess you have already seen this):
“If you’re breastfeeding or plan on breastfeeding while taking ORILISSA, talk to your gynecologist. The impact of ORILISSA on breast milk and the nursing baby is not known, so ask your gynecologist about the best way to feed your baby while on ORILISSA.” https://www.orilissa.com/about/how-to-take-orilissa#:~:text=Can%20I%20breastfeed%20while%20taking,your%20baby%20while%20on%20ORILISSA.
