Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. Could you please tell me if it's okay to breastfeed the child after taking licorice tablets?Doctor's answer:
After taking licorice tablets, you can breastfeed the child. Licorice tablets are traditional Chinese medicine used to relieve phlegm and suppress coughs. It's nothing for the baby to eat. It is recommended to eat more foods that can help relieve cough and phlegm, such as pears. To minimize medication for your baby,?????? Infants and young children have underdeveloped thermoregulatory centers. When stimulated by pyrogens, their body temperature can easily rise and become recurrent. After taking antipyretic medication, if the body temperature does not rise, symptoms can be alleviated by keeping warm and increasing the room temperature.
