Is it allowed to take Maternal Urine Infection during lactation? |

|
About 3% of women may have urinary tract infection (UTI) in the postpartum period (Ahnfeldt-Mollerup 2012).Hand washing is a most useful preventive measure to avoid contagiousness. A urinary tract infection in the mother does not contraindicate breastfeeding. The American Society of Infectious Diseases recommended for the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infection: Nitrofurantoin, TMP / SMX or Fosfomycin as drugs of choice and Fluoroquinolone and Beta-Lactam antimicrobials as an alternative (Cooper 2014).The American Academy of Pediatrics considers TMP / SMX (except in cases of 6-PGD deficiency), Amoxycillin, Nitrofurantoin, Ciprofloxacin and Ofloxacin drugs as usually compatible with breastfeeding (see specific info). Red cranberry as a preventative of UTI is compatible with breastfeeding (see specific info). Bacterial vaccines as a preventative of UTI are compatible with breastfeeding (see specific info as Bacterial lysates). See below the information of these related products: |
