benylin?

[MrsCLH]

Got a tickly cough, its driving me mad. Been taking benylin for tickly coughs for the last 2 days and its only just crossed my mind that maybe I shouldnt while breastfeeding, never even thought!! Anyone know?

Not sure sorry but the BFN Drugs in Breastmilk service may be able to help.

I think the medicine is ok but not benylin max capsules. I looked online and found there is an ingredient in the capsules also in lemsip max I think which actually reduces milk production. Try googling the brand name or LLL can advise over the phone I think
