Silverette Nursing Cups
WHAT ARE SILVERETTE CUPS?

FAQ
HOW TO USE SILVERETTE ®
To prevent or ease sore nursing nipples, leave a couple of drops of breast milk in each cup at the end or your breastfeeding session and place the cups directly over the nipple like a cupping glass. Keep SILVERETTE ® on as much as possible between breastfeeding sessions. Remove cups before breastfeeding.
Do not use any other nipple treatments in conjunction with SILVERETTE ® . Doing so may compromise or reduce the efficacy of the product.
HOW TO CLEAN SILVERETTE ® CUPS?
Wash them daily with warm water to remove any milk residues. To keep them shiny, make a paste using baking soda with a small amount of water. Rub the paste on the cups, rinse thoroughly and dry them.
CAN SILVERETTE ® CUPS BE USED TOGETHER WITH ABSORBENT BREAST PADS?
