Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile? Is alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile safe for nursing mother and child? Does alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile extracts into breast milk? Does alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile influence milk supply or can alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by Dr. Ru: About alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile usage in lactation

It is excreted in breast milk in clinically non-significant amount and no problems have been observed in infants whose mothers were receiving this treatment.Plasma levels in these infants were undetectable or very low. alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile may induce to an increase of plasma Prolactin levels. American Academy of Pediatrics: usually compatible with breastfeeding medication.WHO List of Essential Medicines 2002: compatible with breastfeeding.

Answer by DrLact: About alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile usage in lactation

Limited information indicates that maternal doses of alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile up to 360 mg daily produce low levels in milk and newborns may have detectable alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile serum levels, but levels are low. alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants, especially if the infant is older than 2 months.

alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile Side Effects in Breastfeeding

No adverse reactions have been reported among 3 infants aged 13 days, 8 weeks and 3 months who were exposed to alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile in breastmilk.[2][3][4]

alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile Possible Effects in Breastfeeding

alpha-(3-((2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-methylamino)propyl)-3,4-dimethoxy-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetonitrile can cause hyperprolactinemia and galactorrhea.[5][6] The clinical relevance of these findings in nursing mothers is not known. The maternal prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.
