Answer by DrLact: About Campho-Phenique Triple Plus Pain Reliever usage in lactation

Because it is poorly absorbed after topical application and oral ingestion, Campho-Phenique Triple Plus Pain Reliever is considered a low risk to the nursing infant.[1] Only water-miscible cream or gel products should be applied to the breast because ointments may expose the infant to high levels of mineral paraffins via licking.[2]
