Is Trichlormethiazide Safe in Breastfeeding
Question
I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Trichlormethiazide? Is Trichlormethiazide safe for nursing mother and child? Does Trichlormethiazide extracts into breast milk? Does Trichlormethiazide has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Trichlormethiazide influence milk supply or can Trichlormethiazide decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
Answer by DrLact: About Trichlormethiazide usage in lactation
If trichlormethiazide is required by the mother, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding. Intense diuresis with large doses may decrease breastmilk production.
Trichlormethiazide Possible Effects in Breastfeeding
Relevant published information on trichlormethiazide was not found as of the revision date. Intense diuresis with thiazides and thiazide-like diuretics, fluid restriction and breast binding have been used to suppress postpartum lactation.[1][2][3] The added contribution of the diuretic to these measures, which are effective in suppressing lactation, has not been studied. There are no data on the effects of diuretics on established, ongoing lactation.
