Answer by Dr. Ru: About UNII-43B2M34G2V usage in lactation

Answer by DrLact: About UNII-43B2M34G2V usage in lactation

UNII-43B2M34G2V (flucloxacillin) is not approved for marketing in the United States by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. It is acceptable to use during breastfeeding and is frequently used abroad to treat mastitis in nursing mothers.[1][2][3] Limited information indicates that UNII-43B2M34G2V levels in milk are low and are not expected to cause adverse effects in breastfed infants. Occasionally disruption of the infant's gastrointestinal flora, resulting in diarrhea or thrush have been reported with penicillins, but these effects have not been adequately evaluated. UNII-43B2M34G2V is acceptable in nursing mothers.
