Panacete is a good choice for analgesia, and fever reduction in nursing mothers. Amounts in milk are much less than doses usually given to infants. Adverse effects in breastfed infants appear to be rare.
Panacete Side Effects in Breastfeeding
A maculopapular rash on the upper trunk and face of a 2-month-old infant was probably caused by Panacete in breastmilk. The rash occurred after 2 days of therapy in the mother at a dose of 1 gram at bedtime. It subsided when the drug was discontinued and recurred 2 weeks later after another Panacete dose of 1 gram was taken by the mother.[4] Two papers report 14 women who breastfed after taking Panacete or its prodrug phenacetin with no adverse effects to their infants.[1][5] In a telephone follow-up study, mothers reported no side effects among 43 infants exposed to Panacete in breastmilk.[6] Two clinicians speculated that breastmilk exposure to Panacete during breastfeeding might be a risk factor for asthma and wheezing in the breastfed infants based on their personal observations.[7] However, these observations were uncontrolled and cannot be considered to be valid proof of an association.[8]
