Is Iodixanolum [Latin] Safe in Breastfeeding

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

X-ray contrast medium with 49% Iodine. At latest update no published data were found on excretion into breast milk. Because a high molecular weight a significant passage into the breast milk is unlikely. It is used in young infants and neonates. The various Iodinated contrast media for imaging examinations (X-rays, CT scans) are considered compatible with breastfeeding since they are rapidly eliminated with little or no release of iodine, not metabolized and virtually not absorbed when taken by mouth. They are structurally very similar to each other and one of them is their data no or minimal excretion in milk. Given the low lipid solubility of the iodinated contrast, less than 1% of the dose administered to the mother just passing milk.Due to their low oral bioavailability, intestinal absorption is less than 1% of the dose that he may take the infant.The maximum dose just getting the baby is less than 0.01% of the maternal dose, which represents less than 1% of the dose administered to a nursing practice that is a radiological contrast examination. Most radiology scientific societies agree that after a radiological iodinated contrast examination is not necessary to wait any time to resume nursing.

Intravenous iodinated contrast media are poorly excreted into breastmilk and poorly absorbed orally so they are not likely to reach the bloodstream of the infant or cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants. One report of very small amounts of iodine from Iodixanolum [Latin] in breastmilk supports this generalization. Guidelines developed by several professional organizations state that breastfeeding need not be disrupted after a nursing mother receives a iodine-containing contrast medium.[1][2][3][4]
