Can pregnant and lactating women take Amoxicillin?

Patient's question:

Could you please tell me if I can take Amoxicillin capsules and Xueli Gao while breastfeeding? Thank you for your help. I've had a scratchy throat and dry cough for several days.

Doctor's answer:

The situation you mentioned involves a scratchy throat and light cough. This is often considered a case of chronic pharyngitis, which is likely caused by factors such as stomach issues or consuming spicy and irritating foods. Currently, it is advisable to take Amoxicillin, as it poses no harm to the baby and there is no need to be overly concerned. Additionally, it is important to avoid spicy and irritating foods and to drink plenty of water.
