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

Colorante azoico con efecto analgésico en la mucosa del tracto urinario. Uno de sus metabolitos es el paracetamol. Puede teñir las secreciones corporales de color anaranjado. Riesgo de metahemoglobinemia. A fecha de última actualización no encontramos datos publicados sobre su excreción en leche materna. Producto de farmacocinética poco estudiada y de eficacia limitada. Hasta conocer más datos sobre este fármaco, son preferibles alternativas conocidas más seguras, en especial en el periodo neonatal y en caso de prematuridad o déficit de glucosa-6PD.

This medication works wonders if you have a urinary track infection, I LOVE IT!! It may take me inbetween 1-2 hours for it to kick in and relieve my pain, but when it does... its magical. This relief is the best thing in the world.... definitely worth a try if you are having any symptoms of a uti

This medication helped almost immediately after having a biopsy done on a spot in my bladder. I would definitely recommend it for fast relief of burning when urinating.
