Answer by Dr. Ru: About Bromazepamum [INN-Latin] usage in lactation

Benzodiazepine of long-acting type Reportedly, a coincident case of SIDS in an infant who had risk factors occurred, however, a causative relation with the drug was not recognized. Eventual usage and at low dose of benzodiazepines is compatible with breastfeeding. Use the benzodiazepine with the shortest action period and as minimal effective dose as possible, mostly for infants in the neonatal age. Follow-up for somnolence and troubles with feeding of the infant is recommended. Bed-sharing is not recommended for mothers who are on this medication.
