Brief Answer:
What is the age of your baby please

Detailed Answer:
Hi...I assume that the prescription of Taxim-o and Diclomol is for you and you are asking if it is safe to breast feed you baby. Is it right?

You can breast feed your baby. But a word of caution is that almost all the drugs which you take are secreted in the breast milk. But when you are having an infection, it is better you take the drugs and get out of the infection soon. it will be more helpful for your baby.

I would like to know what is the age of your baby and based on that I will get back to you.
