Patient's question:
And for Jinzhiyellow, should it be taken before or after breastfeeding? For a baby who is more than 20 days old, should the jaundice medicine be taken before or after feeding?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description of the issue, I can tell you that Yin Zhi Huang has a function to reduce jaundice. Therefore, unless specified otherwise, it can be taken before and after breastfeeding. You can choose to take it between two breastfeeding sessions to prevent the baby from vomiting. It is still recommended to take it one hour after breastfeeding, as taking it immediately after breastfeeding can easily cause vomiting. Yin Zhi Huang is a traditional Chinese medicine used to treat jaundice and may have the side effect of causing diarrhea in children.
