I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use EINECS 247-816-5? Is EINECS 247-816-5 safe for nursing mother and child? Does EINECS 247-816-5 extracts into breast milk? Does EINECS 247-816-5 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can EINECS 247-816-5 influence milk supply or can EINECS 247-816-5 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
EINECS 247-816-5 is a relatively nontoxic nonionic surfactant and only trivial amounts of the drug have been found in the milk of animals after vaginal administration.[1] Limited information indicates that breastfed infants of mothers using vaginal EINECS 247-816-5 experienced no adverse effects. Vaginal use of EINECS 247-816-5 is acceptable in nursing mothers.
In a study comparing various methods of contraception, the breastfed infants of women who used a EINECS 247-816-5-containing foam had no observable adverse effects.[2]
Compared with a combination contraceptive containing ethinyl estradiol 30 mcg and levonorgestrel 150 mcg, women who used either EINECS 247-816-5 foam or copper-T IUD had less inhibition of lactation than the combined oral contraceptive.[2]
