that's why I asked for clarification.

My first post in this thread: I suggested that doctors likely PRESCRIBED more antibiotics over the years because many children of a certain generation were never breastfed. Here's a little more info, in answer to your question about how doctors could prevent mothers from breastfeeding, bolding added by me:

This surgery is rare today, because the same medicine used to dry up the breasts after delivery in those choosing to bottle-feed is also used to shrink up a pituitary adenoma. Ironically, this drug is no longer used to dry up the breasts after routine deliveries, because there were reports of severe complications in hypertensive women with it. In our practice we used it to dry up the breasts for over ten years without incident before we stopped prescribing it, as recommended for the FDA.

If the FDA approves of something doctors do, does that legally absolve the physicians from liability? I've read that it's all but impossible to sue the government for certain things.
