Should I take Rowatinex if I am breastfeeding?

Rowatinex is a herbal preparation used in urinary tract diseases and kidney stones. Although the doctor has stated that it is a safe herbal medicine, it is not recommended for use during breastfeeding, according to the information in the leaflet, due to the lack of relevant data.

Although the Rowatienex leaflet advises against its use during breastfeeding, the doctor has the right to use the drug based on his or her best knowledge and experience, and not on the basis of the manufacturer's recommendations. It is also a common practice.

If your doctor decides to use Rowatinex in a breastfeeding woman, this involves regular monitoring of the patient's condition and adjustment of the dosage. It is also worth noting that drug leaflets often contain outdated or overly cautious information about breastfeeding, because pharmaceutical companies do not conduct clinical trials on this group of patients. Your doctor has access to up-to-date data on the safety of this medicine during lactation. A doctor will be the best source of information on this issue.
