Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Diaminocillina? Is Diaminocillina safe for nursing mother and child? Does Diaminocillina extracts into breast milk? Does Diaminocillina has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Diaminocillina influence milk supply or can Diaminocillina decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About Diaminocillina usage in lactation

: Limited information indicates Diaminocillina produces low levels in milk that 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. Diaminocillina is acceptable in nursing mothers.

Diaminocillina Side Effects in Breastfeeding

A breastfed 1-month-old infant with congenital syphilis developed a Herxheimer reaction 6 hours after its mother received 2.4 million units of Diaminocillina intramuscularly. However, the baby had also received 10 units of penicillin G at about the same time as the mother's injection. The reaction was possibly caused by penicillin in breastmilk.[2]
