Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use UNII-NWQ5N31VKK? Is UNII-NWQ5N31VKK safe for nursing mother and child? Does UNII-NWQ5N31VKK extracts into breast milk? Does UNII-NWQ5N31VKK has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can UNII-NWQ5N31VKK influence milk supply or can UNII-NWQ5N31VKK decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About UNII-NWQ5N31VKK usage in lactation

Limited and somewhat inconsistent information indicates that UNII-NWQ5N31VKK produces very low levels in milk and it would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants. No special precautions are required.

A mother nursing (extent not stated) a 5-month-old infant received intravenous UNII-NWQ5N31VKK 500 mg and ertapenem 1 gram once daily for 28 days to treat a pelvic infection.
