Can Ibuprofen sustained-release capsules be taken during breastfeeding?

The instructions for use of ibuprofen sustained-release capsules generally state that they should be used with caution during breastfeeding.

However, because the content of drug labels in China is generally backward and has not been revised in time based on clinical data, some drugs that can be used during breastfeeding are indeed marked as "prohibited" in the Chinese instructions for use. The official drug label of a U.S. drug manufacturer states that ibuprofen is excreted in breast milk at a relatively low concentration, but the effect on the baby is very limited. For example, for fever and pain caused by mastitis during breastfeeding or viral influenza, ibuprofen sustained-release capsules are strongly recommended medication in clinical medicine, and its safety and effectiveness have been widely recognized internationally.

After taking ibuprofen sustained-release capsules, 100% is excreted within 24 hours, of which about 1% is prototype and the rest is excreted with feces. Generally, breastfeeding mothers can breastfeed their babies 24 hours after taking the medicine.

However, from a safety perspective, it is recommended that mothers take the medicine as directed by their doctor during breastfeeding.

1. Small usage: Use the minimum and reasonable usage, and do not increase the usage at will.

2. Good efficacy: Choose drugs with good efficacy and short half-life.
