Chelidonium majus is better known as Celandine. It is a bitter in action herb meaning it may have an effect on smooth muscles. It may also act as an emmenagogue and should be avoided during pregnancy. I could not find any info on breastfeeding, however I would strongly caution the mom about it's use.
