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

Pirazolone derivative analgesic drug. Authorized and widely used drug in Europe and Latin America. Not approved in USA and UK since the 70’s because increased risk of rash, anaphylaxis and agranulocytosis (1 case out of 1 million) yet not confirmed in other settings. No untoward effects have been reported aside from a case of cyanosis in the 80’s. The American Academy of Pediatrics rates it as compatible with Breastfeeding.
