Brief Answer: Paracetamol can be safely taken Detailed Answer: Hi Welcome to Healthcare-Magic Greetings of the day Dear XXXX Every drug is secreted to some extent in breast milk. Not all drugs have adverse effects on feeding. Crocin or Paracetamol is the safest analgesic. Half tablet will not be sufficient for you. I recommend you taking full tablet for management of body pain. It is totally safe for baby. Many of mothers ask me this query when they come for follow up of their kids. Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you. Take care Best Regards Dr Deepak Kishore MBBS, MS, MCH Consultant Pediatric Surgeon
