Lysine supplements and breastfeeding

[Flopsy145]

Has anyone taken lysine supplements while breastfeeding and been all ok? The internet is very vague on the matter, I barely breastfeed and am trying to stop as baby is 1. I get a very oddly placed cold sore/herpes outbreak on my knee and haven't had one in a few years but it's just started to pop up, it's not a great location although I can easily cover it to prevent transmission and I've started the anti virals.
So essentially thinking of starting lysine again to hopefully aid in getting it shifted and also to continue taking it to help prevent others

No idea but the BFing Network have a very useful Drugs & BFing service.

I've used it in the past and they were very helpful

@PritiPatelsMaker thank you! I just had a look and unfortunately lysine isn't mentioned. It's an amino acid that our body can't make that we take from food so doesn't fall under medication or herbal remedies! Thank you though 🙂
