If a mother takes cold medicine for a cold during lactation, it is generally recommended to wait 72 hours before breastfeeding. Because a cold needs to be completely metabolized in the body, it takes about three days. If breastfeeding is carried out too early, the medicine will enter the child's body along with the milk, affecting the child's normal growth and development, and affecting the child's health.
