According to the manufacturer Uro-Vaxom: "No studies have been conducted and there is a lack of data on this, however, caution should be exercised when prescribing the product to breastfeeding women." The drug is designed to stimulate the work of T lymphocytes, which in natural conditions are also present in breast milk. Thus, taking the vaccine will not pose a risk to the nursing baby. As for the drug Copaxone - it should not be used during breastfeeding. There are indications that the drug may cause, for example, a decrease in the child's weight gain. According to the manufacturer: "A risk to newborns or infants cannot be excluded. A decision should be made whether to stop breastfeeding or to stop or refrain from taking Copaxone, taking into account the benefits of breastfeeding for the baby and the benefits of treatment for the woman."
I would like to add that recurrent inflammation of the pecher is also accompanied by overactive pecherz.
