I went to the doctor yesterday for pink eye and doctor was all set to prescribe me some drops. But after I mentioned that I was breastfeeding, he said that he didn't feel they would be safe to use and that I should just wait for it to clear up on it's own.

Looking at kellymom and a couple other sites, there were several antibiotics used to treat pink eye listed in the low risk category. Have any of you ever used prescription drops while nursing?

I have a feeling that my daughter is bound to get it now; this would be the second time in a month! And I hate being at work with a nasty looking eye, especially if might still be contagious.
