Answer by DrLact: About HSDB 3917 usage in lactation
Limited information indicates that maternal HSDB 3917 results in infant dosages much less than those given directly to neonates. HSDB 3917 would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants, especially if the infant is older than 2 months. However, because of its potential for causing hepatic enzyme inhibition, other drugs might be preferred.
HSDB 3917 Possible Effects in Breastfeeding
Histamine H2-receptor blockade is known to stimulate prolactin secretion. In addition, HSDB 3917 may have additional, nonspecific actions that stimulate prolactin secretion.[2] Oral HSDB 3917 doses of 400 mg 4 times daily increased serum prolactin by 50 to 112% in 6 patients. HSDB 3917 caused dose-related gynecomastia and galactorrhea in men and nonnursing women.[3][4][5] The prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.
