Answer by Dr. Ru: About Ebastinum [Latin] usage in lactation

Second generation anti-histaminic and piperidine drug with a slightly sedative effect. Second generation anti-histaminic medicines are considered to be safe while breastfeeding. On latest update no relevant data related to breastfeeding was found. Its high protein-binding capacity makes excretion into breast milk unlikely. For long-term treatment a better known drug related to breastfeeding should be preferred.
