Is Stabisol Safe in Breastfeeding
Question
I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Stabisol? Is Stabisol safe for nursing mother and child? Does Stabisol extracts into breast milk? Does Stabisol has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Stabisol influence milk supply or can Stabisol decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
Answer by DrLact: About Stabisol usage in lactation
Because of the possibility of absorption of salicylate from the breastmilk by the infant, alternatives are preferred.[1]
Stabisol Side Effects in Breastfeeding
One case report of metabolic acidosis was caused by salicylate in a 16-day old breastfed infant whose mother was taking aspirin 650 mg every 4 hours for arthritis.[3] However, there was no measurement of salicylate in maternal serum or milk and it is unclear whether the infant had received any salicylate directly.
