Hello and thank you for using Heathcare magic.

I read your question very carefully and from the information you provided I understand you have rheumatic heart valve problem, that is the reason you take Pentids 400 ( Penicillin) and Envas (enalapril).

This therapy is assigned to you as prevention for infective endocarditis due to valva damadge and aid remodelation of the heart muscle.

According to American Academy of Pediatrics, Envas is safe with nursing, so you can continue and use it, also I would recomend a cardiologist visit. It is very recommend you get a consult after pregnancy.

I hope you got the answer and the explanations you waned. Feel free to contact me for further explanations. If you are satisfied with my answer rate me.

Have a good day
