Answer by DrLact: About UNII-9JDX055TW1 usage in lactation

Limited experience with the use of ophthalmic UNII-9JDX055TW1 indicate that it is unlikely to adversely affect the breastfed infant. To substantially diminish the amount of drug that reaches the breastmilk after using eye drops, place pressure over the tear duct by the corner of the eye for 1 minute or more, then remove the excess solution with an absorbent tissue.
