Question

Can I continue breastfeeding after taking Bupleurum Injection and Yanlixia Capsules?

Answer

Due to the symptoms of mastitis, it is recommended to pause breastfeeding and undergo a routine blood test. You can take cephalosporin antibiotics to keep the breasts clean and dry. You can also perform massage and cold compresses, use a breast pump to express milk, and avoid engorgement. Avoid eating smoked, spicy, and irritating foods; eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, especially those rich in fiber, to maintain bowel regularity. Once your body temperature returns to normal, you can resume breastfeeding after three days.
