Answer by DrLact: About p-Aminobenzoic diethylaminoethylamide usage in lactation

Limited information indicates that maternal doses of p-Aminobenzoic diethylaminoethylamide 2 grams daily produce low levels in milk and would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants, especially if the infant is older than 2 months. Because of the relative lack of data concerning breastfeeding during maternal p-Aminobenzoic diethylaminoethylamide therapy, exclusively breastfed infants should be carefully monitored if this drug is used during lactation, possibly including measurement of serum levels to rule out toxicity if there is a concern.
