of PTU (Propylthiouracil)? How long after taking it will it be matabolised in my breastmilk? For a 100mg dose and for a 50mg dose?

I know you can't answer your own question but for those of you who are interested: "Propylthiouracil is rapidly absorbed. The half-life in plasma
approximates 2 hours (in anuric patients T ½ 8.5 hours). Protein binding of propylthiouracil is
approximately 75%. The drug is metabolised in the liver and is excreted in the bile (primary route) with
approximately 30% being excreted in the urine as metabolites or whole drug" Taken from the product information given to chemists. Thanks anyway!

If you are worried about it, definantely call your doctor or talk to a pharmacist at the drug store. They would be able to help you a lot more, and even tell you whether you should be on the medicing if you're breastfeeding -- some medicines you don't want passing to the child. If it's bad enough, they might switch you to a different, safer one.
