POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 months agoA. For a breastfeeding mother experiencing cold and fever, it’s important to consult a doctor before taking any antibiotics or medications, as some can pass into breast milk and may affect the baby. Colds are often viral and do not require antibiotics, as antibiotics are effective only against bacterial infections. For fever and discomfort, you may be advised to take paracetamol (acetaminophen), which is generally safe during breastfeeding.
If a bacterial infection, like sinusitis or a urinary tract infection, is suspected, a doctor may prescribe antibiotics that are safe for breastfeeding mothers, such as amoxicillin, cephalexin, or azithromycin, depending on the infection. Always follow the guidance of your healthcare provider to ensure both your and your baby’s safety.
