In a series of controlled studies reported in one paper, SQ 14225 had no effect on the circadian rhythm of prolactin, the response to prolactin-stimulating drugs or serum prolactin in patients with prolactin-secreting tumors.[3]In a study of young hypertensive males, SQ 14225 25 mg orally markedly decreased serum prolactin at 90 minutes after the dose compared to placebo.[4] The maternal prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.In one report, 1 woman out of 12 subjects was unable to produce enough milk for the study while taking SQ 14225 100 mg 3 times daily even though she had been successfully breastfeeding for 6 months.[1] It is not known if this decrease was an effect of SQ 14225.
