Curious about the medicine

Hi, I am new mother to 6 months old baby. Now I am having problem with my lips which my lips keep peeling since I am pregnant until now. then, I went to pharmacy to buy any ointment regarding to this problem. They said I am having low immune in body. They suggested ointment and medicine. The medicine they said can eat for those breastfeed baby. But I am not really sure about what they said. The description is not clear because of their handwriting. I am Only guess its PHYTEA medicine from what I am reading. Now I want to know is that really true I can eat this medicine even though I breastfeeding baby. Thanks!

Hi and thank you for asking us

Through the question and statement you gave on the above section, i completely understand your concern over this matter. I’m not sure on the medicine or supplement you mentioned has anything to do with increasing your immunity. It is used for joint pain.

But if you are looking for probiotics that help to keep your body healthy, then it is safe for breastfeeding mothers.

Boost your immune system with a balanced diet and good nutrition.

I advise you to seek and consult any doctor and consult what is the best plan for you and get a full diagnosis of your problem in the first place.
