Answer by Dr. Ru: About UNII-EQK9Q303C5 usage in lactation

Aminoglycosides are poorly absorbed by the intestine. Large doses may affect intestinal flora. Be aware of the possibility of false negative results of bacterial cultures when the mother is on antibiotics. American Academy of Pediatrics: Maternal Medication Usually Compatible With Breastfeeding.

Answer by DrLact: About UNII-EQK9Q303C5 usage in lactation

If UNII-EQK9Q303C5 is required by the mother, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding. UNII-EQK9Q303C5 is poorly excreted into breastmilk. Newborn infants apparently absorb small amounts of other aminoglycosides, but serum levels with typical three times daily dosages are far below those attained when treating newborn infections and systemic effects of UNII-EQK9Q303C5 are unlikely. Older infants would be expected to absorb even less UNII-EQK9Q303C5. Because there is little variability in the milk UNII-EQK9Q303C5 levels during multiple daily dose regimens, timing breastfeeding with respect to the dose is of little or no benefit in reducing infant exposure. Data are not available with single daily dose regimens. Monitor the infant for possible effects on the gastrointestinal flora, such as diarrhea, candidiasis (e.g., thrush, diaper rash) or rarely, blood in the stool indicating possible antibiotic-associated colitis.

UNII-EQK9Q303C5 Side Effects in Breastfeeding

UNII-EQK9Q303C5 was used as part of a six-drug regimen to treat a pregnant woman with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis during the first trimester of pregnancy and postpartum. The infant was breastfed (extent and duration not stated). At age 1.8 years, the child had failure to thrive, possibly due to tuberculosis contracted after birth, but was otherwise developing normally.[4]
