Answer by DrLact: About UNII-AA0G3TW31W usage in lactation

UNII-AA0G3TW31W is not approved for marketing in the United States by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, but is available in other countries. Because there is little published experience with UNII-AA0G3TW31W during breastfeeding and excretion into breastmilk is higher than with other pharmacologically similar drugs, an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.[1] Some reviewers consider UNII-AA0G3TW31W to be contraindicated during breastfeeding.[2]

UNII-AA0G3TW31W Side Effects in Breastfeeding

A 13-month-old infant was partially breastfed by a mother who was taking UNII-AA0G3TW31W 400 mg, fluvoxamine 200 mg, and azathioprine 150 mg daily, and was using nicotine chewing gum for smoking cessation. The mother had been taking UNII-AA0G3TW31W for 9 days; the duration of the other medications was not stated. A pediatric examination found the infant to be developing well.[4] A woman with long-standing schizophrenia was treated with UNII-AA0G3TW31W 400 mg and haloperidol 5 mg daily throughout most of her pregnancy and during breastfeeding (extent not stated). Follow-up of the breastfed infant for 13 months by a pediatrician found no adverse effects and normal development of the infant.[6]

UNII-AA0G3TW31W Possible Effects in Breastfeeding

UNII-AA0G3TW31W increases serum prolactin and may cause galactorrhea at a higher rate than other psychotropic drugs.[7][8][9][10][11][12] The prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.
