Can you eat Chen Pi while breastfeeding?

If people who are breastfeeding are within the indications of Chen Pi, they can usually eat Chen Pi, but they need to use the medicine under the guidance of a doctor. Chenpi, with pungent and bitter flavor, is warm in nature; it is attributed to the spleen and lung meridians. It has the effects of regulating qi and strengthening the spleen (regulating qi and strengthening the spleen), and drying dampness and resolving phlegm (removing phlegm from the body by drying dampness). It is mainly used for treating distension and fullness in the epigastrium (abdomen), vomiting with little food, coughing with excessive phlegm, hiccups, and chest paralysis (tightness and pain in the chest). It should be noted that patients with qi deficiency syndrome, yin deficiency and dry cough, and internal solid heat should take Chen Pi with caution. Breastfeeding women should not use the medicine blindly, so as not to affect the child’s health. If you need to use Chen Pi, you must be guided by a professional Chinese doctor.
