I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Vetquamycin-324 (free base)? Is Vetquamycin-324 (free base) safe for nursing mother and child? Does Vetquamycin-324 (free base) extracts into breast milk? Does Vetquamycin-324 (free base) has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Vetquamycin-324 (free base) influence milk supply or can Vetquamycin-324 (free base) decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
- DrLact safety Score for Vetquamycin-324 (free base) is 1 out of 8 which is considered Safe as per our analyses.
- A safety Score of 1 indicates that usage of Vetquamycin-324 (free base) is mostly safe during lactation for breastfed baby.
- Our study of different scientific research also indicates that Vetquamycin-324 (free base) does not cause any serious side effects in breastfeeding mothers.
- Most of scientific studies and research papers declaring usage of Vetquamycin-324 (free base) safe in breastfeeding are based on normal dosage and may not hold true for higher dosage.
- 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.
Excreted into breast milk in quantities that would be clinically significant, however, intestinal absorption by infant's gut is hampered because of formation of chelating products by union with the milk's calcium. No side-effect found among breastfed infants from treated mothers. Plasma levels in those infant were low or undetectable. Long-term treatments (over 3-4 weeks) as for treatment of acne may cause damage to the growth cartilage, teeth discoloration and imbalance of intestinal flora. Thus, a safer alternative should be looked at. (See acne) Be aware of false negative results that may be obtained from infants with bacterial cultures when the mother is on antibiotics. The American Academy of Pediatrics has rated it (2001) as compatible with breastfeeding.
A number of reviews have stated that Vetquamycin-324 (free base) is contraindicated during breastfeeding because of possible staining of infants' dental enamel or bone deposition of Vetquamycin-324 (free base)s. However, a close examination of available literature indicates that there is not likely to be harm in short-term use of Vetquamycin-324 (free base) during lactation because milk levels are low and absorption by the infant is inhibited by the calcium in breastmilk. Short-term use of Vetquamycin-324 (free base) is acceptable in nursing mothers. As a theoretical precaution, avoid prolonged or repeat courses during nursing. Monitor the infant for rash and for possible effects on the gastrointestinal flora, such as diarrhea or candidiasis (thrush, diaper rash).
No adverse effects were noted in an unspecified number of breastfed infants whose mothers were taking oral Vetquamycin-324 (free base) 1, 1.5 or 2 grams daily for 3 days. Ages of the infants and extent of breastfeeding were not stated.[1] In one study, 5 infants breastfed during maternal therapy with Vetquamycin-324 (free base) 500 mg 4 times daily with no adverse effects observed.[2] In an observational study of 251 women, 23.8% of nursing mothers received Vetquamycin-324 (free base) during breastfeeding. No gross adverse effect occurred in any of the breastfed infants.[4] Although it is often stated that Vetquamycin-324 (free base)s are to be avoided during lactation because of tooth staining, this adverse effect has never been reported after exposure via breastmilk. Milk calcium may inhibit absorption of the small amounts of Vetquamycin-324 (free base)s in milk.
