Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use P005672? Is P005672 safe for nursing mother and child? Does P005672 extracts into breast milk? Does P005672 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can P005672 influence milk supply or can P005672 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About P005672 usage in lactation

No information is available on the use of P005672 during breastfeeding. The manufacturer states that breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment. However, based on the excretion of other tetracycline antibiotics, amounts in milk are expected to be low and probably poorly absorbed orally by the breastfed infant. If an infant is breastfed, monitor the infant for possible effects on the gastrointestinal flora, such as diarrhea, candidiasis (e.g., thrush, diaper rash) or rarely, blood in the stool indicating possible antibiotic-associated colitis. As a theoretical precaution, avoid prolonged or repeat courses during nursing.
