Can-C Eye Drops

[Littlemt]

Hi Team,

I wondering if you could tell me if Can-C cataract eye drops are safe while breastfeeding. I am also open to another pregnancy. If I do become pregnant or are trying, what is your advice on both.

Thanks so much for your help.

The composition is:
Glycerin USP 1% w/v
Carboxy Methyl Cellulose USP 0.3% W/v

Excipients:
Benzyl Aicohol (as preservative) USP 0.3% w/v
N-acetyl Carnosine 1% w/v
Potassium Bicarbonate USP q.s.
Boric Acid NF q.s

The directions are to put 1 to 2 drops in the eye twice daily.

Thanks so much for any advice you can give me.

Littlemt,
I don't think these eye drops would transfer to a significant degree into your milk or would cause trouble in pregnancy.
