Levelsof nitrofurantoin in breast milk are low, can be used while breastfeeding older infants. Avoid use in infants under 1 month of age and those with G-6PD deficiency at any age.

Nitrofurantoin is safe in pregnancy and lactation. It is supposed to be avoided only if the baby has G6PD deficiency. It should be used for a short course (one week).
