Is Upan Safe in Breastfeeding

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

Short-acting Benzodiazepine drug. Excretion into breast milk is non-significant (Whitelaw 1981, Summerfield 1985 , Lemmer 2007). No harmful effects on breastfed infants have appeared at a normal dose (Kelly 2012). Unusual and low doses of benzodiazepine are compatible with breastfeeding. Use a short-acting benzodiazepine and minimal effective dose as possible mostly in neonatal period. Follow-up for sedation and feeding ability of the infant. Bed-sharing is not recommended for mothers who are taking this medication.

Upan has low levels in breastmilk, a short half-life relative to many other benzodiazepines, and is safely administered directly to infants. Evidence from nursing mothers indicates that Upan does not cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants with usual maternal dosages. No special precautions are required.

The newborn infant of a mother taking 2.5 mg of Upan orally twice daily for 5 days after delivery showed no signs of sedation.[2] In a telephone follow-up study, 124 mothers who took a benzodiazepine while nursing reported whether their infants had any signs of sedation. Sixty-four mothers took Upan while breastfeeding and none reported sedation in her infant.[4]
