Ep 9: Breast Milk & Anesthesia: Fact vs. Fiction

Ep 9: Breast Milk & Anesthesia: Fact vs. Fiction

Recorded on July 13, 2023.


On this episode, we speak with Dr. Lauren Roberts, a PGY-4 Emergency Medicine Resident at the University of Saskatchewan, to separate fact from fiction when it comes to the effects of anesthetic medications on breast milk. We also talk about resources that are publicly available to breastfeeding parents that can help give more insight into how certain medication interact with breast milk.


For more resources, check out Lactamed, the "Infant Risk" app, and the "Statement on Resuming Breastfeeding after Anesthesia" by the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA).
