Answer by DrLact: About 1,2-Benzenediol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- usage in lactation

No information is available on the use of 1,2-Benzenediol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- during breastfeeding. Because of its poor oral bioavailability and short half-life, any 1,2-Benzenediol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- in milk is unlikely to affect the infant. Intravenous 1,2-Benzenediol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- infusion may decrease milk production. 1,2-Benzenediol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- is known to reduce serum prolactin in nonnursing women, but no information is available on its effect on milk production in nursing mothers.

1,2-Benzenediol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- Possible Effects in Breastfeeding

Intravenous 1,2-Benzenediol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- infusion in doses of 2 to 5 mcg/kg/minute given to nonnursing subjects and in women with hyperprolactinemia decreases serum prolactin concentrations.[1][2][3][4][5] However, relevant published information on the effect of intravenous 1,2-Benzenediol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- on milk production in nursing mothers was not found as of the revision date. The prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.
