Answer by Dr. Ru: About EINECS 249-307-3 usage in lactation

Eventual 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.

Because little information is available on the use of EINECS 249-307-3 during breastfeeding, an alternate hypnotic may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant. EINECS 249-307-3 has a relatively short half-life, so occasional use while breastfeeding an older infant should pose little risk to the infant, but monitor the infant for excessive drowsiness.
