How long can I breastfeed after infusion during lactation

If you are sick and need infusion during breastfeeding, you must stop breastfeeding your baby, because the liquid medicine will be transported to various parts of the body through the blood circulation, and the milk fed to the baby will also contain the liquid medicine, which will pose a certain threat to the baby's health. Therefore, breastfeeding women who are receiving infusion should wait for a period of time after stopping the infusion to allow the liquid medicine to be completely absorbed before breastfeeding the baby. So how long can you breastfeed after infusion during breastfeeding?

If intravenous infusion is given during breastfeeding, breastfeeding will be stopped. Generally, an interval of more than 48 hours is required. Do not take medicine without authorization, and control the dosage.
