I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use EC 700-455-1? Is EC 700-455-1 safe for nursing mother and child? Does EC 700-455-1 extracts into breast milk? Does EC 700-455-1 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can EC 700-455-1 influence milk supply or can EC 700-455-1 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
No information is available on the clinical use of EC 700-455-1 during breastfeeding. Because EC 700-455-1 is 96% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. However, its half-life is about 22 hours and it might accumulate in the infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during EC 700-455-1 therapy.
