Answer by Dr. Ru: About UNII-ZCN055599V usage in lactation
No data on breastfeeding mothers is available. It would be more appropriate to choose anxiolytic drugs known to be safer. Eventual and low dose use of benzodiacepines are compatible with breastfeeding. Use the short-acting benzodiazepine and minimal effective dose as possible mostly in the neonatal period. Follow-up for sedation and feeding ability of the infant. Bed-sharing is not recommended for mothers who are taking this medication.
