Stupor, flatulence or vomiting have been described. Theoretical risk though never reported of bone marrow toxicity. Use only if necessary. Avoid any use during neonatal period. Be aware of the possibility of false negative results of bacterial cultures when the mother is on antibiotics.

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 Stanomycetin. Milk concentrations are not sufficient to induce "gray baby" syndrome, but since Stanomycetin-induced aplastic anemia is not dose-related, this might occur, but has not been reported. An alternate drug is preferred to Stanomycetin during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant. If the mother must receive Stanomycetin 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.

One study reported 50 breastfed infants whose mothers were give oral Stanomycetin 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]
