1. Yes, you can safely take Dolo 650 • Dose: 1 tablet (650 mg) every 6–8 hours as needed for fever or headache/body ache • Maximum: 4 tablets (2,600 mg) in 24 hours • Take only when temperature is >100°F or you feel very uncomfortable — no need to take “just in case” 2. Do NOT stop breastfeeding — even for a single feed • Continuing breastfeeding is protective for your baby (passes your antibodies against the virus) • Stopping can cause engorgement, mastitis, or drop in milk supply • Your baby is not at significant risk from this mild illness in you 3. See a doctor (preferably today or tomorrow) if: • Fever goes >101°F and stays high >24 hours • Severe headache, cough with yellow/green sputum, ear pain, or breathing difficulty starts • You feel very unwell or dehydrated (dry mouth, less urine)

• Fever & comfort: • Dolo 650 as above • Sponge with lukewarm water if fever >101°F • Rest as much as possible (ask family to help with baby care) • Blocked nose relief (safe while breastfeeding): • Plain saline nasal drops (Otrivin-S, Nasoclear, Sterimar) — 2–3 drops each nostril, 4–6 times a day • Steam inhalation (plain hot water) — 10 min, 2–3 times a day • Sleep with head slightly elevated (extra pillow) • Drink warm fluids — water, herbal tea (tulsi/ginger, no caffeine), soup, kadha • Safe medicines you can take if needed (all safe in breastfeeding): • Cetirizine 10 mg once daily (for nose blockage if very severe) • Paracetamol + Phenylephrine combination (e.g., Sinarest) — only 1–2 days if nose very blocked • Avoid pseudoephedrine (Sudafed-type) — can reduce milk supply • Protect baby: • Wash hands before every feed/handle • Wear mask while breastfeeding if possible (reduces droplet spread) • Continue exclusive breastfeeding — your milk is best protection for baby Most breastfeeding moms with mild viral illness recover in 3–7 days without stopping feeds. Dolo 650 is safe, and you can continue nursing normally. If fever rises >101.5°F, symptoms worsen, or you feel very weak, see a doctor promptly (GP or gynecologist who knows you are breastfeeding). Rest well and take care of yourself and baby
