There are certain medications which can be transfered to baby through milk . Here two medicines which you have been given can be passed to breast milk and to baby... Hence give formula for a couple of days (although it's not an ideal thing to do). Spacing out medications in between breast feeding is usually done but that is not possible as the baby is still a neonate
