Answer by Dr. Ru: About 3-(Butylamino)-4-phenoxy-5-sulfamoylbenzoic acid usage in lactation

Loop diuretic. Long-term treatment with diuretic drugs (particularly those Thiazides with long lasting effect and loop-acting drugs) may inhibit lactation. Use a lower dose as possible, especially during the first postnatal month.

Answer by DrLact: About 3-(Butylamino)-4-phenoxy-5-sulfamoylbenzoic acid usage in lactation

It is unknown if 3-(Butylamino)-4-phenoxy-5-sulfamoylbenzoic acid is excreted into breastmilk. It should be avoided while breastfeeding a newborn because it may decrease milk flow or completely suppress lactation. Low doses in mothers whose lactation is well established are unlikely to suppress lactation. In general, alternate drugs are preferred.
