Can Persol Forte Cream be used while breastfeeding?
Persol Forte Cream contains benzoyl peroxide, which is commonly used for acne treatment. When applied to small areas of intact skin, it is generally considered to have very low absorption into the body, so the risk to a breastfeeding baby is minimal. However, it should not be applied on or near the breast or nipple area because the baby may directly contact it during feeding, which can cause irritation. It is also important to wash hands after application and avoid applying it to large or broken skin areas unless advised by a doctor. For safe use during breastfeeding, it is best to confirm with a dermatologist based on your skin condition.
