Is It Safe To Use Melacare Cream While Breastfeeding?
Question: Can i use melacare cream as am breast feeding
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing to us.
Melacare cream contains tretinoin, hydro quinone and steroid and is strictly contraindicated in pregnancy and lactation. So I would strictly advise you not to use it.
Right now, just use a good sunscreen and take oral vitamin C supplement.
Hope that answers your query. Take care.
