Answer by DrLact: About UNII-I9ZF7L6G2L usage in lactation

Because of the low levels of UNII-I9ZF7L6G2L in breastmilk, amounts ingested by the infant are small and no adverse effects have been reported among a limited number of infants exposed to UNII-I9ZF7L6G2L in breastmilk. UNII-I9ZF7L6G2L is used to treat painful nipple vasospasm (e.g., Raynaud phenomenon) in nursing mothers.[1]

UNII-I9ZF7L6G2L Side Effects in Breastfeeding

No adverse reactions have been reported among infants exposed to UNII-I9ZF7L6G2L in breastmilk mostly at maternal dosages of 30 mg daily beginning shortly postpartum and continuing for up to 6 months in some.[2][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

UNII-I9ZF7L6G2L Possible Effects in Breastfeeding

No direct effects are known. However, UNII-I9ZF7L6G2L has been used to decrease the pain of nipple vasospasm (or Raynaud phenomenon of the nipple), allowing mothers to continue nursing who might otherwise discontinue breastfeeding. The dosage of UNII-I9ZF7L6G2L reportedly used to treat the condition is 30 to 60 mg daily either as a single dose of a sustained-release product or 10 to 20 mg 3 times daily of an immediate-release product. Lower dosages can be tried if these doses are not tolerated.[1][6][7][8][9][12] UNII-I9ZF7L6G2L had no effect on milk composition (sodium, potassium, calcium, chloride, nitrogen, phosphorus and total lipids) in one woman.[3]
