Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use UNII-808UI9MS5K? Is UNII-808UI9MS5K safe for nursing mother and child? Does UNII-808UI9MS5K extracts into breast milk? Does UNII-808UI9MS5K has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can UNII-808UI9MS5K influence milk supply or can UNII-808UI9MS5K decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About UNII-808UI9MS5K usage in lactation

If UNII-808UI9MS5K is required by the mother, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding. Because UNII-808UI9MS5K is poorly absorbed orally, it is not likely to reach the bloodstream of the infant or cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants. Monitor the infant for possible effects on the gastrointestinal tract, such as diarrhea, vomiting, and candidiasis (e.g., thrush, diaper rash). However, because there is no published experience with UNII-808UI9MS5K during breastfeeding, an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
