I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use UNII-HYD2U48IAS? Is UNII-HYD2U48IAS safe for nursing mother and child? Does UNII-HYD2U48IAS extracts into breast milk? Does UNII-HYD2U48IAS has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can UNII-HYD2U48IAS influence milk supply or can UNII-HYD2U48IAS decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
There are no reports of infants breastfed during maternal therapy with UNII-HYD2U48IAS. Because absorption from the eye is limited, UNII-HYD2U48IAS would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants. To substantially diminish the amount of drug that reaches the breastmilk after using eye drops, place pressure over the tear duct by the corner of the eye for 1 minute or more, then remove the excess solution with an absorbent tissue.
Relevant published information on UNII-HYD2U48IAS was not found as of the revision date. In one telephone follow-up study, mothers reported irritability and colicky symptoms in 10% of infants exposed to various antihistamines and drowsiness was reported in 1.6% of infants. None of the reactions required medical attention.[1]
Antihistamines in relatively high doses given by injection can decrease basal serum prolactin in nonlactating women and in early postpartum women.[2][3] However, suckling-induced prolactin secretion is not affected by antihistamine pretreatment of postpartum mothers.[2] The prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed. Low ophthalmic doses of UNII-HYD2U48IAS are unlikely to have the same effect on serum prolactin.
