Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use ASL 8052-001? Is ASL 8052-001 safe for nursing mother and child? Does ASL 8052-001 extracts into breast milk? Does ASL 8052-001 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can ASL 8052-001 influence milk supply or can ASL 8052-001 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About ASL 8052-001 usage in lactation

Based on its physicochemical properties and extremely short half-life, ASL 8052-001 would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants.

ASL 8052-001 Side Effects in Breastfeeding

A study of mothers taking beta-blockers during nursing found a numerically, but not statistically significant increased number of adverse reactions in those taking any beta-blocker. Although the ages of infants were matched to control infants, the ages of the affected infants were not stated. None of the mothers were taking ASL 8052-001.[2]

ASL 8052-001 Possible Effects in Breastfeeding

Relevant published information on the effects of beta-blockade or ASL 8052-001 during normal lactation was not found as of the revision date. A study in 6 patients with hyperprolactinemia and galactorrhea found no changes in serum prolactin levels following beta-adrenergic blockade with propranolol.[3]
