Answer by DrLact: About HSDB 3027 usage in lactation

Adverse reactions such as vomiting, excessive intestinal gas and falling asleep at the breast have been reported in breastfed infants whose mothers were taking oral HSDB 3027. Milk concentrations are not sufficient to induce "gray baby" syndrome, but since HSDB 3027-induced aplastic anemia is not dose-related, this might occur, but has not been reported. An alternate drug is preferred to HSDB 3027 during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant. If the mother must receive HSDB 3027 during nursing, monitor the infant for gastrointestinal disturbances and adequacy of nursing. Monitoring of the infant's complete blood count and differential is advisable. In some cases, discontinuation of breastfeeding might be preferred.

HSDB 3027 Side Effects in Breastfeeding

One study reported 50 breastfed infants whose mothers were give oral HSDB 3027 beginning 2 to 12 days postpartum in dosages of 1 (n = 20), 2 (n = 20)or 3 grams (n = 10) daily. All of the infants refused to suck, and 50 to 60% fell asleep during nursing. Vomiting occurred after feeding in 10%, 25%, and 90% of infants with daily maternal dosages of 1, 2 and 3 grams, respectively. All infants had excessive intestinal gas and abdominal distention, with severe problems in 0.5%, 20% and 100% of infants with daily maternal dosages of 1, 2 and 3 grams, respectively.[4]
