Because of the lack of data on use during breastfeeding, other antidepressants are preferred during breastfeeding.
UNII-O408N561GF Possible Effects in Breastfeeding
UNII-O408N561GF can elevate serum prolactin in some patients[1] and has caused galactorrhea in nonpregnant, nonnursing patients.[2] The clinical relevance of these findings in nursing mothers is not known. The prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.
