Introduction
Under normal circumstances, you should wait 12 to 24 hours after taking Rupixiao before breastfeeding; do not breastfeed immediately. Breastfeeding is generally not recommended during medication. You may resume breastfeeding after waiting 12 to 24 hours. By that time, the medication in the breast milk will have been mostly metabolized, and breastfeeding will have minimal impact on the infant's health.

Under normal circumstances, breastfeeding should be delayed for 12 to 24 hours after taking Rupixiao, and it's important not to breastfeed immediately. The detailed explanation is as follows:

Rupixiao is a clinically used medication for treating mastitis and mammary gland hyperplasia. If symptoms such as redness, swelling, pain, or lumps in the breasts occur, this medication may be used under a doctor's guidance. Generally, breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment. It is advisable to wait 12 to 24 hours before resuming breastfeeding. By then, the drug components in the breast milk will have mostly been metabolized, so nursing at this time will have minimal impact on the infant.

In general, taking medications during lactation is not recommended to avoid potential effects on the infant's brain development. If any illness occurs during breastfeeding, prompt medical attention is necessary.
