I am suffering from ringworm from 6 months. Now recently, I had delivered a baby. After consulting dermatology doctor, he gave me itraconazole 100 mg twice a day for 1 week. During usage of this medicine, can I breast feed my baby or not?

Itraconazole causes side effects... And most importantly it will not cure Ringworm... In most cases immediately after stopping it the eruptions come back. It can be cured by homeopathic treatment permanently and without a single side effects if right medicine is given.. You can consult me online for proper treatment.

Dear user, itraconazole is better to be avoided during breastfeeding, as it may pass on to the fetus. Studies have shown poor absorption in milk but it is safe to avoid breastfeeding during this period. It is better to store breast milk and feed as required but not to feed during the course of the medication. If you found my answer helpful, please leave a positive feedback as it helps me with my practice. Thank you.
