a friend has asked me if it is safe to take anadin extra while
breastfeeding
I am off to breastfeeding group in a bit, or if no answer from
there will try and contact someone else that knows
but was just wondering if anyone knew in the meantime

Im not sure as it contains aspirin, paracetamol and caffeine.
When i was bf - i only ever took straight paracetamol.
My dr told me i could take ibuprofen occasionally (as in once a
month) - but i never did
I always thought aspirin was a no no....
Also lemsips and things like that are a no no too when
bfeeding.......
I googled it and found this

Hey, I was always told the same... Aspirin a no-no, just
straight paracetamol. But then I have been prescribed stronger
painkillers while breastfeeding. I think perhaps it is the
caffeine etc in it. Maybe get docs to prescribe if she needs
something stronger than paracetamol? Xxx
Hope all is well ladies.
