I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use HSDB 8094? Is HSDB 8094 safe for nursing mother and child? Does HSDB 8094 extracts into breast milk? Does HSDB 8094 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can HSDB 8094 influence milk supply or can HSDB 8094 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
HSDB 8094 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 HSDB 8094 experienced no adverse effects. Vaginal use of HSDB 8094 is acceptable in nursing mothers.
In a study comparing various methods of contraception, the breastfed infants of women who used a HSDB 8094-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 HSDB 8094 foam or copper-T IUD had less inhibition of lactation than the combined oral contraceptive.[2]
