Answer by Dr. Ru: About Proxazocain usage in lactation

Anesthetic drugs for topical use, both dermatological and odontological, have almost nil absorption when properly used. Do not apply on the breast. Otherwise, do it after having nursed, and cleanse it thoroughly with water before next feeding.
