Yes, paracetamol is safe for breastfeeding, just be sure not to exceed the recommended dose.

yes you can. Just ensure that you do not exceed 8 tablets of the 500 mg dose within 24 hours.

Some doctors are different on what you take when you're breastfeeding. Try contacting yours and see what they think. Good Luck!

paracetamol and tylenol are similar, right? Yes, it is safe.

take an advil or tylenol PILL, it doesn't pass through the milk and won't hurt the baby if it's not coated.

call your doctor or emergency center and ask them but i doubt it. tylenol should be the only thing you should be allowed to take
