When considering the use of Dersol-L Solution, which contains lactic acid and salicylic acid, during breastfeeding, it is important to understand the safety profile of these ingredients. Both lactic acid and salicylic acid are commonly used in topical skincare products for their exfoliating and keratolytic properties.
Lactic Acid: Generally considered safe for topical use during breastfeeding as it has minimal systemic absorption.
Salicylic Acid: While topical use in low concentrations is usually safe, higher concentrations or extensive application might lead to systemic absorption, which could potentially affect the nursing infant.
Given that Dersol-L Solution contains relatively high concentrations (17% each) of both acids, caution is advised. It is best to consult your healthcare provider or a dermatologist before using this product while breastfeeding to ensure safety for both you and your baby.
In the meantime, consider alternative skincare options with lower concentrations or those specifically recommended for use during breastfeeding to avoid any potential risks.
