Answer by DrLact: About UNII-ONW3LB39P7 usage in lactation

No information is available on the use of UNII-ONW3LB39P7 during breastfeeding. Because UNII-ONW3LB39P7 is a quaternary ammonium compound, it is not likely to be absorbed and reach the bloodstream of the infant. Long-term use of UNII-ONW3LB39P7 might reduce milk production or milk letdown. During long-term use, observe for signs of decreased lactation (e.g., insatiety, poor weight gain).

UNII-ONW3LB39P7 Possible Effects in Breastfeeding

Relevant published information in nursing mothers was not found as of the revision date. Anticholinergics can inhibit lactation in animals, apparently by inhibiting growth hormone and oxytocin secretion.[1][2][3][4][5] Anticholinergic drugs can also reduce serum prolactin in nonnursing women.[6] The prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.
