Answer by Dr. Ru: About UNII-8VLN5B44ZY usage in lactation
Sympathomimetic drug that is topically used for treatment of nose or the eye. A fecha de última actualización no encontramos datos publicados en relación con la lactancia. A small dose together with a low plama level of most nasal and ophthalmologic compounds make that a significant excretion into breast milk would be unlikely. Avoid over dosage and do not use it for longer than 3 days: as any other adrenergic-agonist drug, when absorbed, it may be a cause of side effects (vascular hyper-hypotension, irritability, heart arrhythmia) on both the mother and the infant.
Answer by DrLact: About UNII-8VLN5B44ZY usage in lactation
Although no information exists on the use of UNII-8VLN5B44ZY specifically during breastfeeding, very little should reach the infant through breastmilk because of the local administration and limited absorption into the maternal bloodstream. It is recommended over oral systemic decongestants such as pseudoephedrine during breastfeeding.[1] Topical use on the face is unlikely to present a risk to the nursing infant.
