HSDB 8061 Possible Effects in Breastfeeding
Galactorrhea has been reported with HSDB 8061.[1] Hyperprolactinemia appears to be the cause of the galactorrhea. The hyperprolactinemia is caused by the drug's dopamine-blocking action in the tuberoinfundibular pathway. The maternal prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.
