Answer by DrLact: About EINECS 208-152-1 usage in lactation
No information is available on the use of EINECS 208-152-1 ophthalmic drops during breastfeeding. Because EINECS 208-152-1 is a quaternary ammonium compound, it is not likely to pass into the breastmilk or reach the bloodstream of the infant.[1]

Relevant published information in nursing mothers was not found as of the revision date. In animals, cholinergic drugs increase oxytocin release,[2] and have variable effects on serum prolactin.[3] The prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.
