Answer by Dr. Ru: About HSDB 6314 usage in lactation

Answer by DrLact: About HSDB 6314 usage in lactation

Limited information indicates that HSDB 6314 produces low levels in milk that are not expected to cause adverse effects in breastfed infants. Occasionally disruption of the infant's gastrointestinal flora, resulting in diarrhea or thrush have been reported with penicillins, but these effects have not been adequately evaluated. HSDB 6314 is acceptable in nursing mothers.

HSDB 6314 Side Effects in Breastfeeding

In one study, 12 infants were breastfed during maternal HSDB 6314 therapy. Seven appeared normal, 3 had looser stools than normal, and 1 had a rash on the buttocks on the last day of therapy. These effects were possibly related to HSDB 6314 in milk, but no control group was present. One infant had stains of blood in the stool, but it had happened once prior to maternal HSDB 6314 treatment.[1]
