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

Second-generation cephalosporin for oral administration with a chemical structure similar to cefaclor. At latest update no published data on excretion into breast milk were found. Cephalosporins for which data are available have shown to be excreted into milk in non-significant amount from a therapeutic point of view without reported complications in infants related to them.Cephalosporins are widely used in the Pediatric practice with a high tolerance, even in the neonatal period, so it is very unlikely that such small amounts present in the milk may be a cause of problems to the infant. Be aware of the possibility of false negative results of cultures in febrile infants whose mothers are taking antibiotics as well as the possibility of gastroenteritis (Ito 1993) by altering the intestinal flora.

Although no information is available on the use of loracarbef during breastfeeding, beta-lactam antibiotics are generally not be expected to cause adverse effects in breastfed infants. Occasionally disruption of the infant's gastrointestinal flora, resulting in diarrhea or thrush have been reported with beta-lactams, but these effects have not been adequately evaluated. Loracarbef is acceptable in nursing mothers.
