If the mother is allergic to cabbage, she should not use it. 
 
If she eats cole slaw or cabbage in any form, she isn't allergic to cabbage  
and can use the leaves.
 
While yes, there is sulfur in both cabbage and sulfa drugs, my dh, the  
pharmacist, says he has NEVER heard of anyone who is allergic to sulfa drugs  being 
allergic to cabbage and/or being told to stay away from cabbage because  they 
are allergic to oh, say, Bactrim.
