One case with no traces of this drug in the mother's milk has been reported. Until more information is available, safer options should be preferred.
Answer by DrLact: About Bisomerck usage in lactation
Because there is little published experience with bisoprolol during breastfeeding, other agents may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
Bisomerck Side Effects in Breastfeeding
A study of mothers taking beta-blockers during nursing found a numerically, but not statistically significant increased number of adverse reactions in those taking any beta-blocker. Although the ages of infants were matched to control infants, the ages of the affected infants were not stated. None of the mothers were taking bisoprolol.[3] Beta-adrenergic blocking drugs with similar breastmilk excretion characteristics have caused adverse effects in breastfed newborns.[4][5]
Bisomerck Possible Effects in Breastfeeding
A study in 6 patients with hyperprolactinemia and galactorrhea found no changes in serum prolactin levels following beta-adrenergic blockade with propranolol.[6] Relevant published information on the effects of beta-blockade or bisoprolol during normal lactation was not found as of the revision date.
