Does WAY 143841 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can WAY 143841 influence milk supply or can WAY 143841 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About WAY 143841 usage in lactation

Because no information is available on use of WAY 143841 during breastfeeding, an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant. If WAY 143841 is required by the mother, it is not necessarily a reason to discontinue breastfeeding, but monitor the infant for drowsiness, agitation, adequate weight gain, and developmental milestones, especially in younger, exclusively breastfed infants and when using combinations of drugs.
