Does Wikoryl Intake While Breastfeeding Cause Any Adverse Effect In The Infant?
Im a mother of 4 months old baby. Im undergoing severe headache and running nose. Though i took dolo 650 the previous night, im not recovered. Hence took wikoryl in the next morning post breakfast. I fell asleep unknowingly and couldn t wake up for nearly 3 hrs. Family members tried to wake me up but i can t evn open my eyes. I felt my body hvy. Gradually after sumtym i gained concious. But still i feel som drowsyness. I breastfed my lo immediately. Will this have an impact on my lil one too?
Since Wikoryl is medicine with combinations. I would suggest when you are pregnant or breast-feeding you should only use levocetirizine if there is a clear benefit outweighing the possible risks. Though there are no direct effects of Wikoryl to the infant, if taken once or twice by mother. Don't repeat it.
Thanks Dr. Tripat Mehta
