Is DRG-0143 Safe in Breastfeeding
Question
I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use DRG-0143? Is DRG-0143 safe for nursing mother and child? Does DRG-0143 extracts into breast milk? Does DRG-0143 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can DRG-0143 influence milk supply or can DRG-0143 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
Answer by DrLact: About DRG-0143 usage in lactation
No information is available on the use of DRG-0143 during breastfeeding. Fluoroquinolones have traditionally not been used in infants because of concern about adverse effects on the infants' developing joints. However, recent studies indicate little risk.[1][2] The calcium in milk might prevent absorption of the small amounts of fluoroquinolones in milk,[3] but insufficient data exist to prove or disprove this assertion. Use of DRG-0143 is acceptable in nursing mothers with monitoring of the infant for possible effects on the gastrointestinal flora, such as diarrhea or candidiasis (thrush, diaper rash). However, it is preferable to use an alternate drug for which safety information is available.
