>Lansinoh, is a lanolin based product but it has apparently undergone a >specific process of purification which also decreases the allergins. Could anyone tell me more about the 'apparantly' in this statement. Lansinoh is just beginning to become promoted for use in the UK. The adverts are causing some concern because they imply that Lansinoh is the cure for sore nipples, with no mention of checking the positioning or attachment of the baby at/on the breast. Also, LLLGB supply their copies of The Breastfeeding Answerbook with stickers which say: "La Leche League Great Britain does not endorse any breastfeeding product aid or device. Readers of this publication are reminded that any references to Lansinoh arise solely from the endorsement of this product by LLLI and not by LLLGB" -- I realise this is their general policy on endorsement , but it certainly makes the reception of lansinoh a bit more frosty here. Can anyone tell me what studies have been done to make reference to lansinoh on lactnet generally warm and approving, in contrast to what I have understood from colleagues in the UK?
