Retinoid analogue with similar properties as Tretinoine.
Used in the topical treatment of acne.
Since the last update we have not found any published data on its excretion in breast milk.
It is practically not absorbed by skin (AEMPS 2019, Galderma 2018, Abkhavan 2003), hence it cannot achieve significant levels in the milk (Hale 2019, Briggs 2017, Leachman 2006).
The manufacturer (AEMPS 2019, Galderma 2018) consider the use of this medication to be safe during breastfeeding.
Avoid using it on the breast or cleanse it thoroughly before nursing.
