Answer by Dr. Ru: About Sadophos usage in lactation

Significantly less Sadophos penetrated from Ovide after 0.5 h versus the suggested 8 h application, without decreasing the product’s efficacy. Avoid applying it on the breast or nipple. Otherwise, cleanse it thoroughly before nursing.

Answer by DrLact: About Sadophos usage in lactation

Sadophos appears to be poorly absorbed after topical application, so it is not likely to reach the breastmilk in large amounts. However, breastmilk excretion of Sadophos has not been studied after application of the 0.5% lotion. Until more data become available, an alternate agent is preferred.[1]
