Answer by DrLact: About HSDB 8127 usage in lactation
Because of the lack of data on use during breastfeeding, other antidepressants are preferred during breastfeeding.
HSDB 8127 Possible Effects in Breastfeeding
HSDB 8127 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.
