Can I take Mecobalamin tablets during lactation?

Generally, if necessary due to medical conditions, breastfeeding women may cautiously take Mecobalamin Tablets under a doctor's guidance. If there is no clear medical indication for medication, self-administration is not recommended. If in doubt, it is advisable to seek medical consultation in advance. Detailed explanation is as follows:

Current studies have not clearly indicated that Mecobalamin Tablets cause significant adverse effects in breastfeeding women or their infants. If a breastfeeding woman develops conditions requiring medication, such as peripheral neuropathy, after evaluation by a doctor and taking the appropriate dosage, it generally does not affect the safety of breastfeeding. The quantity of medication excreted into breast milk is also minimal, with limited effects on the infant.

If a breastfeeding woman is in good health without symptoms requiring medication, such as neuropathy, taking Mecobalamin Tablets is unnecessary. On the contrary, it may place additional strain on the body due to drug metabolism, and the lack of clear safety evidence supporting its use without medical indication may pose unknown risks.

Before taking Mecobalamin Tablets, breastfeeding women must consult a doctor to determine the necessity and appropriate dosage. During medication, both maternal and infant conditions should be monitored closely. If any adverse reactions occur, the drug should be discontinued immediately and medical attention sought.
