What Is The Treatment For Allergies?

Can I take avil 25 for my allergy my baby is 4 months old . He is on exclusive breastfeeding . Pls help. My height is 5.4 my weight is 65 kgs and I am 30 years old . I have always had allergies since I was a kid and I used to take Avil. This problem stopped when I became pregnant now, it's been a month since this problem has started again. I have consulted many doctors but they are unable to rule out the reason for this allergy .

Hello.

Thank you for asking at HCM.

I went through your history and would like to address your queries as follows:

1. Avil is considered safe for lactating mothers. Only few(minute) amount of the drug goes into the breast milk and that does not affect the feeding baby. So, you can take it for your allergy symptoms without worry.

2. Regarding treatment of allergies, I would like to know nature of your allergy symptoms. That it, whether they affect skin, nose, lungs (asthma) or any other. Depending upon the type of allergy, allergy testing, appropriate measure to avoid allergy causing substances as well as if required, allergen immunotherapy can be advised.

From your history, I am not able to get what kind of allergy you are having, so can not advise further. I am really sorry for that.

Hope above answer will be helpful to you.

Wish you the best of the health.

Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.

Thank you & Regards.
