Sleepiness and sedative effect in a child have been reported. In a group of mothers who were taking 200 mg daily, their breastfed infants have failed to show any untoward effect. Three infants, whose mothers were on haloperidol and chlorpromazine at the same time, have shown a lower scoring at developmental test between 12 and 18 months. Breast milk production may become increased by stimulation of prolactin release.
CAS Number: 50-53-3
Chlorpromazine is detectable in the milk of some mothers during therapy, but levels appear not to correlate well with the maternal dose or serum level. Some breastfed infants become drowsy during maternal chlorpromazine therapy. Very limited long-term follow-up data indicate no adverse developmental effects when the drug is used alone. However, using it in combination with haloperidol can negatively affect development. Monitor the infant for excessive drowsiness during breastfeeding and for developmental milestones, especially if other antipsychotics are used concurrently.
Homeopathic medicines usually do not cause harmful effects on breastfed babies. Chlorpromazinum | Chlorpromazine Liquid is a homeopathic medicine and if your baby does not have any abnormal symptoms then there is nothing to worry about. Some homeopathic medicines contain alcohol (ethanol) and such homeopathic medicines in high dosage can have bad effect on development of baby.
Homeopathic medicines are usually safe in breastfeeding and if Chlorpromazinum | Chlorpromazine Liquid has been recommended by doctor then there should be no doubt about its usage in breastfeeding.
