Jeanette,
Kreosotum is used in pregnancy for vomiting. The apparent combination remedy
"FORMULA HOMEOPATICA MAGISTRAL" does not list any remedies, only
abbreviations of some sort, though I believe Variol refers to variolinum.
Homeopathic remedies are safe to take in pregnancy and while breastfeeding,
and it is thought that whatever remedy the mother needs, the infant also
needs and vice-versa. I am not sure that the last two are homeopathic
remedies. Is she being given enzymes of some sort? I have no idea what the
last item is. Is she being treated by a homeopath or naturopath? If so, there
is no reason for her to receive anything that is not safe while breastfeeding.
