Is Predmet 4 a safe and standard treatment for a breastfeeding mother who has COVID-19 with mild lung inflammation, weakness, and a fever, and what are the potential side effects for her and her baby?
Predmet 4 (methylprednisolone) is a low-dose corticosteroid that is generally considered safe to use while breastfeeding. Because only a tiny amount passes into breast milk, it is highly unlikely to affect your baby. To safely minimize any exposure, try to nurse or pump 2 to 4 hours after taking your dose. You might experience mild, temporary side effects like trouble sleeping, restlessness, or a slight increase in appetite. Your baby is very unlikely to experience side effects, though you can monitor them for mild irritability. Please rest, stay well-hydrated, and continue to coordinate closely with your doctor for your COVID-19 recovery.
