Answer by Dr. Ru: About BRN 6940582 usage in lactation

Antibacterial carbapenem beta-lactam with indications similar to imipenem.Intravenous administration every 8 hours. It is excreted in breast milk in a clinically insignificant amount (Sauberan 2012) and no problems have been observed in infants whose mothers took it (Festini 2004). Authorized pediatric use in infants and newborns. It is considered by experts to be compatible with breastfeeding (Rowe 2013). The possible negativity of cultures in febrile infants whose mothers take antibiotics should be taken into account, as well as the possibility of gastroenteritis due to altered intestinal flora (Benyamini 2005, Ito 1993, Kafetzis 1981).

Answer by DrLact: About BRN 6940582 usage in lactation

Although no information is available on the use of BRN 6940582 during breastfeeding, milk levels appear to be low and beta-lactams are generally 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 beta-lactams, but these effects have not been adequately evaluated. Vaborbactam, which is available in the combination product Vabomere, has not been studied in nursing mothers, but the combination is expected to have similar concerns as with BRN 6940582 alone.
