- DrLact safety Score for BAXO is 1 out of 8 which is considered Safe as per our analyses.
- A safety Score of 1 indicates that usage of BAXO is mostly safe during lactation for breastfed baby.
- Our study of different scientific research also indicates that BAXO does not cause any serious side effects in breastfeeding mothers.

- Score calculated using the DrLact safety Version 1.2 model, this score ranges from 0 to 8 and measures overall safety of drug in lactation. Scores are primarily calculated using publicly available case studies, research papers, other scientific journals and publically available data.
It is excreted in breast milk in clinically non-significant amount and no problems have been observed in infants whose mothers took this medication. Levels in plasma and urine of such infants were undetectable. Having published less quantity of studies than with other drugs of the same group, safer alternatives may be preferable, especially in the neonatal period and in case of prematurity. The American Academy of Pediatrics rates it as usually compatible with breastfeeding.
Low amounts of BAXO in milk and failure to detect BAXO or its metabolites in the urine of 2 older infants indicates that it would not be expected to cause adverse effects in older breastfed infants. Because there is no published experience with BAXO during breastfeeding in the newborn period, shorter-acting agents may be preferred while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
No adverse effects were found in the breastfed infant of a patient receiving 20 mg of BAXO daily for 4 months starting the 9th month postpartum.[1]Four infants 3 to 4.5 months of age remained healthy during long-term therapy of their mothers with BAXO 20 mg daily.[2]
