Because there is no published experience with HSDB 3131 during breastfeeding, other antipsychotic agents are preferred.
HSDB 3131 Possible Effects in Breastfeeding
Galactorrhea has been reported with HSDB 3131.[1][2] Hyperprolactinemia appears to be the cause of the galactorrhea.[3][4][5] The hyperprolactinemia is caused by the drug's dopamine-blocking action in the tuberoinfundibular pathway.[6] The maternal prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.
