Brief Answer:
Kindly mention the dose you are taking

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
Tue drug you mentioned contains hydrocodone. This drug can be secreted in milk and sometimes causes drowsiness in infants. But the issue is usually not much of a concern after initial 3 months of life
Anyhow, kindly mention the exact dose you are taking, so that we can give a more clear opinion
