I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Pyrocatechol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)-? Is Pyrocatechol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- safe for nursing mother and child? Does Pyrocatechol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- extracts into breast milk? Does Pyrocatechol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Pyrocatechol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- influence milk supply or can Pyrocatechol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
No information is available on the use of Pyrocatechol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- during breastfeeding. Because of its poor oral bioavailability and short half-life, any Pyrocatechol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- in milk is unlikely to affect the infant. Intravenous Pyrocatechol, 4-(2-aminoethyl)- infusion may decrease milk production. Pyrocatechol, 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.
Intravenous Pyrocatechol, 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 Pyrocatechol, 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.
