During lactation, nursing mothers should be especially careful when taking any medications. After all, with breast milk, the mother can take medicines in various amounts.
Terjinan with lactation - apply or not?
On the use of Terginan in breastfeeding newborns, there are directly opposite opinions of doctors:
- In the first case, doctors consider Terginan candles absolutely safe during lactation and prescribe it to patients breastfeeding.
- According to other medical workers, it is absolutely unacceptable to prescribe Terzhinan during lactation, because this can cause irreparable harm to the health of the child.
To understand this issue, let's turn to an authoritative source. The medical manual Vidal provides instructions for the use of the drug Terzhinan. According to the instructions, Turginan can only be used for lactation if: "the expected benefit of therapy for the mother exceeds the potential risk for the baby".
What is the risk for the baby? This is not mentioned anywhere, however, any medicines have side effects, and if for an adult they are serious enough, then for a fragile organism of an infant may have very serious consequences.
Pay attention to the composition of the drug Terzhinan. In addition to antifungal drugs nystatin, teridazole and neomycin sulfate, it contains prednisolone - a synthetic analogue of hormones cortisone and hydrocortisone. The instructions for the use of prednisolone clearly state that the appointment of it during lactation is highly undesirable, since there is a huge risk for the child.
Terzhinan in medical practice is used to treat candidiasis and vaginitis, as well as urogenital infections. In most cases, nursing mothers turn to doctors about thrush (candidiasis), which is a fairly common female disease. And more often, candles turginan at a lactemia appoint just for treatment
But is it worth it to risk the health of the most precious being because of such non-fatal disease. Perhaps it makes sense to consult the doctor in more detail and find other, alternative therapies.
Of course, whether to take Terginan during lactation, in the end, the woman will decide herself. And it depends on many factors, because the disease can take place in different ways and have a different degree of damage to the body. But it should be remembered that there is always a choice, and you can consult with several specialists before making such an important decision.
