Can i use exoderil 10mg while am breastfeeding?

Caution: Exoderil is a topical cream or gel. So, I don't know where "10mg" comes from. Topical antifungals have minimal systemic absorption. Therefore, the risk to a breastfeeding infant is low. You should not apply the cream to the nipple area, and do not let the infant's skin contact areas of your body which have been treated with the cream. Confirm this with your obstetrician/gynecologist.
