Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Perindoprilum? Is Perindoprilum safe for nursing mother and child? Does Perindoprilum extracts into breast milk? Does Perindoprilum has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Perindoprilum influence milk supply or can Perindoprilum decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About Perindoprilum usage in lactation

Limited information indicates that only low levels of Perindoprilum and its active metabolite are found in breastmilk, which is consistent with other drugs in this class. Amounts ingested by the infant are small and would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants.
