Hello
Welcome to HCM
Thank you for the query
I understand your concern
Well mostly redotril and loperamide are relatively safe drugs in lactation there safety has not been completely established but experience shows they are well tolerated.
Darolac is safe during lactation and can be safely consumed.
Tell her to have plenty of water and electrolytes intake to avoid dehydration
Ensuring hygienic food and pure potable water intake will help Avoiding such problems in future
Hope this answers your query
