Answer by Dr. Ru: About 3-(2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl)-N-methyl-1H-indole-5-methanesulfonamide usage in lactation

Until more information on other Triptan-related compounds are available 3-(2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl)-N-methyl-1H-indole-5-methanesulfonamide is thought to be the safest one because of both a low excretion into breast milk and a low gut absorption.

Answer by DrLact: About 3-(2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl)-N-methyl-1H-indole-5-methanesulfonamide usage in lactation

BBecause of the low levels of 3-(2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl)-N-methyl-1H-indole-5-methanesulfonamide in breastmilk, amounts ingested by the infant are small. It also has poor oral bioavailability, further decreasing infant exposure to the drug. Some authors have suggested that withholding breastfeeding for 8 hours after a single subcutaneous injection would virtually eliminate infant exposure to the drug.[1] The manufacturer recommends withholding breastfeeding for 12 hours after a dose. Withholding breastfeeding might be helpful in extreme cases, such as in the mother of a preterm infant, but 3-(2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl)-N-methyl-1H-indole-5-methanesulfonamide would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in most breastfed infants. One anecdotal report of lactation ceasing after a single injection of 3-(2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl)-N-methyl-1H-indole-5-methanesulfonamide has not been verified.
