Pharmacist FAQs Answered

Is Lansinoh HPA Lanolin safe to use beforehand to prevent nipple soreness?

Yes, Lansinoh HPA Lanolin may be used beforehand as a preventive. Applying a small amount of lanolin to the nipples after expression or between feedings keeps the skin lubricated and protected. This can assist in reducing cracking or dryness, which is common during the first few days of breastfeeding. Because Lansinoh is all natural, tasteless, and odourless, it does not need to be expressed before your baby is breastfed. Repeated use forms a barrier that strengthens the skin's natural healing process and assists in maintaining moisture levels, which is especially helpful during the first few weeks of feeding.

Is Lansinoh HPA Lanolin suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin?

Yes, Lansinoh HPA Lanolin is highly refined and has been awarded the British Allergy Foundation Seal of Approval, so it is safe to use on even the most sensitive skin. It is also hypoallergenic, paraben-free, additive-free, and fragrance-free and contains a single natural ingredient. Lansinoh's unique purification process removes potentially irritating chemicals such as pesticides, colourants, and free wool alcohols. This makes it especially suitable for new mothers whose skin may be slightly more reactive or sensitive while breastfeeding. Nevertheless, if you or your baby has a known allergy to lanolin or wool derivatives, consult a healthcare professional before use.

Can I use this nipple cream on other parts of my body?

Absolutely. Lansinoh HPA Lanolin is a versatile product that many mothers use beyond breastfeeding. Its natural, ultra-pure quality makes it safe for most skin problems, such as dry lips, elbows, cuticles, stretch marks, and minor cuts or scrapes. It's also utilised to prevent and treat a baby's skin against nappy rash or irritation due to drool. Its rich, balm-like quality acts as a skin barrier, preventing evaporation and favouring natural recovery. This makes it valuable to the mum and baby's daily care routine.

How should Lansinoh nipple cream be stored?

Lansinoh HPA Lanolin should be kept in a dry, cool place out of direct sunlight, preferably at room temperature. The product has a long shelf life as it is pure and preservative-free. You should usually be able to see the expiry date on the tube or box. While the cream has a good, long shelf life, do watch for a change in texture, odour, or colour as a sign it may be getting old. The cream, once opened, should remain suitable for several months so long as the cap is kept tight to prevent any germs.

Is Lansinoh Lanolin safe if the baby swallows it accidentally?

Yes, Lansinoh HPA Lanolin is completely safe for babies and need not be removed before breastfeeding. The cream contains only 100% ultra-purified lanolin with no chemicals, perfumes, preservatives, or additives. Its safety has been evaluated and cleared by medical professionals and allergy specialists. As it is tasteless and odourless, babies tend not to feel it during feeding. It is perfectly safe with no risk whatsoever if taken in small quantities; that's why lactation consultants and midwives endorse it all over the world to save sore nipples throughout the entire breastfeeding journey.

Can I use Lansinoh HPA Lanolin if I'm pumping or using breast pads?

You can use Lansinoh HPA Lanolin either before or after pumping without interrupting the process of your breast pump. Some mothers find that lanolin use reduces friction and discomfort during pumping. If wearing breast pads, allow the cream to absorb briefly before positioning the pad to avoid slipping. Use high-absorbency, breathable pads (like Lansinoh Disposable Nursing Pads) to avoid trapping moisture, which causes additional irritation or infection like thrush.
