Answer by Dr. Ru: About SDZ-ASM 981 usage in lactation
Immune suppressive drug topically used as treatment of atopic dermatitis. Absorption through skin is minimal. Avoid applying it on the breast to keep the infant from oral absorption.
Answer by DrLact: About SDZ-ASM 981 usage in lactation
Topical SDZ-ASM 981 has not been studied during breastfeeding; however, it is used topically in children as young as 3 months of age. Because it is poorly absorbed after topical application and plasma concentrations after topical use in adults are less than 2 mcg/L, it is a low risk to the nursing infant. Do not apply to the nipple area and avoid direct contact of the infant with the areas of skin that have been treated.[1][2] Only water-miscible cream or gel products should be applied to the breast because ointments may expose the infant to high levels of mineral paraffins via licking.[3]
