Is E 2080 Safe in Breastfeeding
Question
I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use E 2080? Is E 2080 safe for nursing mother and child? Does E 2080 extracts into breast milk? Does E 2080 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can E 2080 influence milk supply or can E 2080 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
Answer by DrLact: About E 2080 usage in lactation
Because no information is available on the use of E 2080 during breastfeeding and because it is potentially toxic to the breastfed infant, an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
