Lanolin Safety for Newborns: Addressing Parental Concerns

Question
my 40 days old child breast fed from the nipple with lanolin applied is it poisonus ?

Answer
Dear Rajkumar,

No, the lanolin would not be poisonous for your baby. Please note however, since I'm sure you were immediately concerned, that this site is not an "immediate" answer site. We do try to answer questions within 3 days, however I have had some virus issues with my computer and have been offline. If you are ever concerned in the future about your child ingesting anything poisonous, please refer to the poison control center at 1-800-222-1222 or go to their website at www.aapcc.org

I hope this has helped you and answered your question. I wish you well.
