Will Taking Amplicox For A Bacterial Infection Affect My Breastfed Baby, Or Should I Pump And Dump During This Time?

Hallo Doctor. I have a Bacteria infection I presume. It has attacked my nose, sore throat coughing and sneezing for three day now also my eyes get stuck with mucus. I have a 5 month old baby and I am exclusively breastfeeding. At first this infection affected my baby and them transferred to me. It is also causing me fever and headaches. I took Amplicox bachem now because I couldn’t bear any longer. My question is. Will it affect my child who is breastfeeding or do I need to pump and dump the milk produce during this time?
