Answer by DrLact: About EINECS 241-925-1 usage in lactation
EINECS 241-925-1 is not approved for marketing in the United States by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, but is available in other countries. It lowers serum prolactin and is approved in some countries for lactation suppression. Some experts recommend EINECS 241-925-1 as a safer alternative to bromocriptine for lactation suppression, but others recommend avoiding all lactation suppressants.[1][2] Data are insufficient recommend one treatment for lactation suppression over another.[3]
EINECS 241-925-1 Possible Effects in Breastfeeding
EINECS 241-925-1 suppresses serum prolactin increases in a dose-related fashion.[4][5] Comparative studies have found EINECS 241-925-1 comparable in efficacy to bromocriptine, although rebound lactation occurred in more patients treated with EINECS 241-925-1 0.4 mg daily than in those treated with bromocriptine 5 mg daily.[6][7] Rebound lactation appears to be less with a higher dose of 0.6 mg daily and with 15 days of therapy rather than 10 days.[8][9]
