Is it allowed to take Glucose during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

Glucose (dextrose), as a component of oral re-hydration solutions, fluids for IV use, or, as excipient of drugs, is entirely compatible with breastfeeding. Nevertheless, D/W solutions orally used in neonates just after birth are highly discourage since it may affect initiation of lactation seriously.

Dextrose is used in Lean Cuisine. Since I started eating this meal, I have been having lower back pains. I will discontinue use of Lean Cuisine to see if the back pains go away.
