Dr. mom ointment for breastfeeding. Dr. mom when breastfeeding Dr. mom when lactating

Medicines for children occupy a separate niche among medicines. The child's body is still quite sensitive and susceptible, for this reason, not all drugs that are prescribed to adults are suitable for babies. They need more gentle and safer means. Such drugs include Doctor Mom ointment for children, which is intended for external use. It warms, relieves inflammation and acts as a local irritant. Most often it is prescribed in case of a cold or to relieve pain in muscles and joints.

Dr. Mom's ointment is great for treating colds

Release form and components of the drug

The most common form of release of the drug Doctor Mom is an ointment. It is prescribed for external use. The packaging in which it is sold is a polypropylene jar with a screw cap.

Dr. Mom is a translucent white ointment with a thick consistency, the smell of menthol and camphor. It contains components such as:

• Eucalyptus oil;
• camphor;
• menthol;
• turpentine oil (see also:);
• thymol;
• nutmeg oil;
• white hard paraffin as an auxiliary element.

Nutmeg oil has strong anti-inflammatory properties

Pharmacological action of the ointment

This ointment acts as an anti-inflammatory, warming, irritating and pain relieving agent. The reason for the cumulative therapeutic effect that the drug has is the components present in it:

1. Eucalyptus oil promotes decontamination and provides a warming effect. It also has an antibacterial, aromatherapy effect. This substance is produced during the extraction of resin from myrtle plants.
2. Camphor is known for its antiseptic and antiphlogistic qualities. Its effect is manifested immediately after entering the body. Despite the fact that it is quite harmless, it is advisable not to use it for children under 2 years of age.
3. Thanks to menthol, the blood vessels expand, plus it has an exciting effect. Due to all this, a warming effect is achieved. As a result, the movement of existing sputum is accelerated and their faster release, which is important in the treatment of cough.
4. Similar to the Zvezdochka product, turpentine oil warms, exerting a thermal effect upon rapid penetration under the skin. This type of oil is obtained from the resin of coniferous trees.
5. Timol is a disinfecting substance, the action of which is relevant when it is necessary to treat a viral disease of the throat and nasopharynx.
6. The anti-inflammatory effect that comes from nutmeg oils is due to the fact that these oils, when in contact with the skin, interfere with the production of prostaglandin.

Camphor is extremely active, so it is best not to use it on children under 2 years of age.

This ointment does not have a systemic effect on the body. This is due to the fact that the absorption of the active substances of the drug into the general bloodstream does not occur.

It is important to use the ointment only in areas of potential infection by a virus or bacteria:

• when coughing, it must be applied to the chest, neck and back;
• with nasal congestion and a runny nose - on top of the nasal wings, while you need to make sure that the ointment does not get on the mucous membrane of the eye.

This should be done by making light movements, rubbing and massaging the skin in the area of ​​application. In order to improve the warming effect, a warm wrap can be made.

If the child's bronchi are affected, then it is advisable to smear the feet and heels with the drug.

Dr. Mom in the form of an ointment is used exclusively externally, while it is forbidden to apply the drug to the mucous membranes. The doctor must prescribe the dosage and the specific course of treatment, based on the symptoms of the disease that are observed in the patient. Usually the course lasts a week, but it is possible to extend it as needed at the discretion of the specialist.

In the instructions for use, it is prescribed to apply a thin layer of ointment on dry skin 1-2 times a day. Rub it in with massaging movements until it is completely absorbed:

• If the baby has rhinitis and inflammation in the nasal cavity, the agent is applied to the nasal wings. The drug should not get inside the nasal cavity. The child will inhale the vapors, and thus provide an inhalation effect.
• With ARVI, it is necessary to smear the back and chest, rubbing and massaging until the ointment is completely absorbed. Rubbing is best done at night, wrapping the child well after the procedure. At high temperatures, rubbing is contraindicated - this can aggravate the condition, further increasing the body temperature.

Breastfeeding is a difficult period in a woman's life. Indeed, in the case of a cold or other illness, you need to carefully select medicines so as not to harm the baby. That is why local remedies are so popular.

Medicines that are applied to the skin have several advantages over pills and injections. These include:

• Almost complete absence of systemic action, since the drug is not absorbed into the bloodstream.
• Less risk of side effects.
• A limited list of contraindications.
• Reducing the likelihood of overdose.
• Ease of use.
• Ability to use in most cases during pregnancy and breastfeeding (HB).

However, even among gels and ointments, there are medicines that are prohibited when carrying a baby and breastfeeding. And before using an over-the-counter drug, you need to carefully read the instructions, choosing the safest medicines, based on herbal raw materials, if possible. These include Doctor Mom ointment.

Dr. Mom with HV

Many mothers are interested in the possibility of using Doctor Mom ointment when breastfeeding. Indeed, during this period, doctors recommend avoiding drugs containing non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, due to a certain risk of systemic action, even with topical application.

The composition of the ointment Doctor Mom includes the following components:

1. Oils - nutmeg, eucalyptus, turpentine.
2. Menthol.
3. Thymol.
4. Camphor.

The main advantage of this drug is the lack of systemic action. Its components do not enter the general bloodstream and, therefore, no adverse reactions occur.

However, in the instructions, the manufacturer indicates that during the hepatitis B period, the medicine can be used with caution and only under the supervision and prescription of a doctor. This is due to some of the features of the action of the ointment.

The action of the ointment Doctor Mom

Ointment Dr. Mom has a local effect, but it can affect the entire body. Thanks to the menthol included in the composition, the vessels expand. This results in a feeling of coldness. The cooling effect is distracting and pain relieving. Camphor works by a similar mechanism - it effectively eliminates pain due to skin irritation.

Nutmeg oil inhibits the production of prostaglandins and has a direct anti-inflammatory effect. And thymol is an antiseptic, it has not only antibacterial, but also antifungal effect.

Turpentine and eucalyptus oils, when used topically, irritate the skin, causing blood flow to the lesion.

Due to the combined composition, Doctor Mom's ointment has a fairly wide list of indications, however, there are a number of restrictions for its use, especially when breastfeeding.

Indications and limitations for HS

Most often, doctors prescribe Doctor Mom ointment for colds, muscle pains and coughs.

If the nose is blocked, this medicine can be applied to the wings of the nose from the outside. However, it is important not to rub it in too hard.

For headaches, applying ointment to the temple area has a good effect.

Ointment Doctor Mom relieves the condition when coughing. To do this, it is lightly rubbed into the sternum area. If the abusive mother has tension and pain in the muscles, the drug is applied to this area, after which it is covered with a warm bandage.

But there are also restrictions for the use of this ointment, associated with both breastfeeding and the general condition of the woman, her concomitant diseases.

Pregnant and lactating women were not included in the safety and efficacy studies of this drug for ethical reasons. In this regard, the manufacturer does not recommend the use of Doctor Mom ointment during breastfeeding, although so far there have not been any cases of negative impact on the baby. This drug can only be prescribed by a doctor if, in his opinion, the benefits outweigh the risks.

You should know that the medicine has a rather pungent odor due to the essential oils that are part of it. Using it during the feeding period may lead to a temporary refusal of hepatitis B.

In addition, if Dr. Mom's ointment was applied to the sternum or intercostal space, inhalation by the baby may cause him an allergic reaction or even bronchospasm.

When breastfeeding, you should avoid the local (area of ​​the mammary glands, sternum) use of medicines containing essential oils. There is also a risk that the active ingredients will get into the baby's mouth when feeding.

Ingestion of the ointment into the oral cavity

If the drug Dr. Mom gets into the oral cavity will lead to the rapid absorption of active substances from the mucous membrane. The result is likely to be an allergic reaction. However, there may be other complications:

• Nausea and vomiting.
• Diarrhea.
• Stomach ache.
• Labored breathing.
• Drowsiness, depression of the central nervous system.
• Impaired coordination.
• Dizziness and loss of consciousness.
• Convulsions.

Given the age of the baby, even a small amount of ointment, when it gets into the mouth, can have a serious negative effect. That is why, with hepatitis B, the drug Doctor Mom should not be applied to the area of ​​the sternum, intercostal space and mammary glands.

In addition, if it is necessary to rub it into other parts of the body (the area of ​​the temples, the wings of the nose), it is not recommended to do this immediately before feeding. It is necessary that at least 30-60 minutes have passed after application in order for the pungent odor to disappear.

There are also general contraindications for the use of this medication.

General contraindications

Even if a nursing mother applies Dr. Mom ointment with all precautions, you should not use this medicine for the following pathologies:

• Allergies to the components of the drug, especially essential oils.

• Whooping cough and pseudocrupe, stenosing laryngotracheitis.
• Confirmed convulsive readiness.
• Local skin lesions - burns, dermatitis or eczema, pustular diseases.

This also applies to other forms of release of the drug Doctor Mom - for example, inhalation pencils. In addition, this procedure should not be carried out in the immediate vicinity of the baby, so as not to provoke the development of undesirable effects.

So what can a nursing mom use to treat her cough?

When a nursing woman develops a cough, she should consult a doctor for diagnostics and treatment options. Taking any drug is available only for preliminary consultation with a specialist and to exclude potential risks for a young mother and her nursing baby.

Allergy to cough syrup in a child

The necessity of prescribing a cough syrup for a nursing mother does not raise any questions. Despite this fact, one should understand the risk of an allergic reaction in infants, because medicinal substances enter the female body and affect breast milk. To exclude increased risks, it is advisable to undergo a preliminary consultation with an experienced doctor.

Allergies can be caused by almost any drug. However, the greatest risks are associated with antibiotics, which can also be prescribed to treat coughs. The main goal is the desire to choose a natural syrup that has anti-inflammatory and expectorant effects, and to take it only with the advice of a doctor.

It is advisable to monitor the baby's condition at the first use of any medication. The drug may be safe for a young mother, but lead to drug allergies in the baby.

Symptoms of drug allergy in infants

A small child is susceptible to various external factors and responds especially strongly to drugs. For this reason, allergic reactions are potentially dangerous, and they can appear, both almost immediately and over time.

Immediate reactions are traditionally referred to as Quincke's edema or anaphylactic shock.

However, infants usually show delayed symptoms, which are also highly undesirable. The symptomatology of drug allergy is surprising in its variety. Children may have local or large-scale lesions of the skin, mucous membranes. In severe cases, the activity of internal organs is disrupted.

The most common symptoms of a drug allergy are:

• redness of the skin;
• hives;
• stomatitis;
• conjunctivitis;
• rhinitis;
• shortness of breath or trouble breathing;
• hepatitis.

For any health problems, urgent medical attention is required. It depends on how significant the consequences of an allergic reaction will be for the baby.

Treatment options

The main task is the obligatory cancellation of the cough syrup receptions, which was assigned to the young woman. The doctor will consult and determine the best way to take care of the health of both the young woman and her tiny baby.

The pediatrician will determine the degree of damage to organs and their systems, especially the health status of the baby. In addition, special examinations may be offered to identify the allergen and further select a cough medicine based on the knowledge gained.

It is recommended to be especially careful if the child or his close relatives suffer from a tendency to allergies (including food). Taking into account undesirable factors, you can eliminate the real risks and take care of a successful outcome for the baby.

To eliminate the symptoms, not only the rejection of the dangerous drug is required, but also special treatment, which allows us to weaken the immune response of the baby's body. Decisions are made only by doctors, since therapy for young children is very specific and requires increased control.

What syrup is right for a nursing mother

When prescribing a cough syrup, it is advisable to take into account the peculiarities of the state of health of a nursing woman. Often, doctors are guided by the effect that various drugs are supposed to have.

If sputum appears during an illness, care should be taken of the possibility of its liquefaction and further discharge.

In such a situation, it becomes advisable to take medications that help reduce the amount of sputum. Syrups prepared with natural herbs are effective. Often, experts prescribe Ambroxol, Gerbion, Pertussin.

Suppressive drugs are required to treat dry coughs. Ignoring the symptoms is extremely undesirable, since otherwise there is a risk of developing complications such as pneumothorax, pnemomediastinum. The action of drugs for dry cough, considered unproductive, is aimed at cleansing the lungs. The best syrups are Sinekod, Glycodin.

Combined syrups help to thin and cough up phlegm, eliminate swelling of the respiratory tract. Usually doctors prescribe Codelac Neo, Bronholitin.

The rejection of chemical components turns out to be a positive aspect, which is noted almost in the appointment of any drugs. Natural syrups are created on the basis of environmentally friendly herbs from various regions of Russia and even from other countries of the world.

How to choose a cough syrup

The main challenge when choosing a syrup is to take into account the expected effectiveness and level of safety. Medicines prepared with herbs have maximum benefits and delight with a pleasant taste. However, prescribing any drugs, including the most harmless ones, is the responsibility of the doctor.

It is absolutely impossible to hesitate with the treatment of cough. Otherwise, additional difficulties appear during drug therapy. After bronchitis and other diseases accompanied by an undesirable symptom, a residual cough may occur, lasting up to three weeks.

The components of any syrup pass into breast milk, therefore, toxic substances in the drugs used should be avoided. Even a low concentration of antibiotics, which will be less than the therapeutic dose for a baby, can be dangerous. With the manifestation of allergic reactions for children with a weakened immune system, it is enough to obtain a minimum amount of a dangerous component. In other cases, the risk of manifestations of disturbances in the well-being of the baby is manifested due to prolonged drug therapy, since the active components of the drug enter the child's body and accumulate, are excreted slowly. Suspicious symptoms most often appear in babies under five months old and in premature babies. In children who are six months old, toxic phenomena appear less and less due to the receipt of complementary foods and milk mixtures that increase resistance to external factors.

It is important to prepare for the fact that the behavior of the baby can change not only due to the toxic effects of the syrup, but also due to the change in the taste of breast milk. In such situations, children are capricious and even refuse the female breast. Taking into account this risk, doctors strongly recommend weaning babies when taking the drug and carefully monitoring their condition.

Another point is the potential risk of infecting the baby. Mom becomes contagious even during the incubation period of ARVI.

What medicines to refuse

The basic principle is do no harm. Nursing mothers have the right to choose only safe drugs that will not actively penetrate into the bloodstream with a subsequent effect on the health of the baby. In the absence of allergic reactions, natural syrups are especially recommended, as they become practically harmless. With an increased tendency to allergies, increased caution is required, since the baby is especially vulnerable to various external factors, including the active components of the drugs.

One of the safest cough treatment options is herbal inhalation and herbal syrups. When taking medications such as plantain syrup, marshmallow root or licorice, Doctor Mom, Sinekod, Stodal, a doctor's consultation is still required. Perhaps a specialist will prescribe Libeksin, Falimint, but such drugs have additional risks.

During breastfeeding, it is prohibited to take drugs based on sulfonamides, bromhexine, tetracyclines. Such products are dangerous for newborn babies and can harm their health.

How to take cough syrup while breastfeeding

The rules for taking cough syrups largely depend on the course of the disease. In most cases, doctors provide detailed advice and answer all of the patients' questions. Despite this, the principles of cough treatment should be taken into account.

Features of the treatment of viral and bacterial cough

Often, in lactating women, a cough is caused by the development of a viral infection. An antiviral agent is recommended for treatment, which can have a complex positive effect.

For colds, ARVI, the following drugs are prescribed:

• Bioparox;
• Tantum Verde;
• marshmallow syrup;
• cough medicines for children;
• Herbion syrup, which helps with dry and wet coughs.

Experts note that the above drugs are prescribed not only for adults, but also for babies.

The scheme for taking cough syrups depends on the characteristics of feeding the children. The main goal is to reduce the concentration of the active substance in breast milk. To successfully complete the task and prevent any risks for the baby, experts advise taking the drug immediately after feeding the baby, since after a few hours the amount of active components in the female body will be minimal.

The situation becomes more complicated if the bacterial nature of the cough in a nursing woman is confirmed. To eliminate unwanted symptoms, antibacterial agents are usually prescribed, which are potentially dangerous for infants. If your doctor insists on taking antibiotics, you will have to temporarily stop breastfeeding. In the future, lactation can be restored with the help of medical recommendations.

Features of the treatment of allergic cough

An unpleasant symptom such as a cough is caused not only by a viral or bacterial infection. A potential risk is the ingress of allergens into the woman's airways. In such cases, the cough becomes paroxysmal and suffocating, and the symptom persists even when taking antitussive syrups.

Treatment of allergic cough is carried out only with the appointment of antihistamines. The doctor will advise her patient to prescribe a drug that will be effective for a nursing mother and safe for a baby. It is advisable to choose medicines that are allowed even for babies. Experts note the popularity of Fenistil syrup, but taking medications is advisable only after consulting a doctor.

For effective drug therapy, any contact with the allergen is excluded. Otherwise, all efforts will be in vain.

Breastfeeding of the baby is allowed to continue. Compliance with the agreed regimen for taking the drug and feeding the baby will reduce potential risks to zero.
