Systemic absorption through skin or vaginal mucosa is not significant. Wash hands thoroughly. Avoid using it it on the breast or cleanse before nursing.
Answer by DrLact: About Butoconazol usage in lactation
Vaginal Butoconazol has not been studied during breastfeeding. About 5.5% of a vaginal dose is absorbed and its plasma half-life is 21 to 24 hours. Because there is no published experience with Butoconazol during breastfeeding, other agents may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
