Took wrong pill
Hi doctor, my name is Mike, my cousin's wife delivered a baby on Dec.16 in Italy, she wrongly took Ibuprofen 400mg daily as vitamin. Now she is breast feeding the baby together with baby formula. My cousin wonders if the pill will somehow has a negative effect on the baby. The practice has lasted about 10 days. Thank you.

Dear user,
Ibuprofen 400 has no harmful effect on feeding baby.
You wrote feeding self&formula milk.
You all know that mother's milk is boon given by God, its Amrit. Mother's milk increases only to demand, if baby is given top milk there would be no increase in demand & slowly baby would shift to top milk as there is no energy require for it, in contrast to mother's milk.
Next Steps
So with confidense feed the baby.
