Answer by DrLact: About CCRIS 1953 usage in lactation

Even with the highest maternal dosages, the dosage of CCRIS 1953 in milk is only about 1% of a typical infant dosage and would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants. Topical CCRIS 1953 applied to small areas of the mother's body away from the breast should pose no risk to the infant. Only water-miscible cream or gel products should be applied to the breast because ointments may expose the infant to high levels of mineral paraffins via licking.[1]
