Does Kumulus has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Kumulus influence milk supply or can Kumulus decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
Answer by DrLact: About Kumulus usage in lactation
Kumulus 5% to 10% in a petrolatum base is safe for topical use in children, including infants under 2 months of age.[1] This makes it a useful alternative to organic insecticides for treating scabies in nursing mothers; however, the petrolatum base makes undesirable for use on the breast.
