Bimatoprost while Breastfeeding

CAS Number: 155206-00-1

At latest update no published data on excretion into breast milk were found. The small dose and low plasma absorption of most topical ophthalmic preparations make it unlikely the passage of significant amount of such a product to breast milk, so the use as ophthalmic eye drops poses a very low risk while breastfeeding.In addition, its short half-life and high plasma protein binding capacity make it even more unlikely any passage to the breast milk. After application, press onto the tear sac or close the eyelids tightly for a couple of minutes (nasolacrimal occlusion) to minimize systemic absorption.

Bimatoprost while Breastfeeding

CAS Number: 155206-00-1

No information is available on the use of bimatoprost during breastfeeding. Because of its short half-life it is not likely to reach the bloodstream of the infant or cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants. 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.
