Supplements whilst breastfeeding?

2017-09-11 15:40:46
Hello - I was interested to try some supplements to help shed the last few pounds from my pregnancy weight gain but was worried about the amount of vitamin C (and other ingredients). These are the pills: https://www.liveinnermost.com/shop/lean-dietary-weightloss-booster-capsules.html Are they safe to take or should I wait until after breastfeeding?

Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult.  Such medication effects are not studied in babies. So it's best to wait till you breastfeed.
