Azidamfenicol

Likely Compatibility

Fairly safe. Mild or unlikely adverse effects. Compatible under certain circumstances. Follow-up recommended. Read Commentary.

Antibacteriano de estructura similar al cloranfenicol.
Administración como colirio oftálmico al 1% en infecciones oculares bacterianas.

A fecha de última actualización no encontramos datos publicados sobre su excreción en leche materna.

La pequeña dosis y la escasa absorción plasmática de la mayoría de preparaciones oftalmológicas tópicas hacen poco probable el paso de cantidad significativa a leche materna.

Producto de farmacocinética y efectos no bien conocidos al no disponerse de casi ninguna referencia bibliográfica (Bioaustralis 2017) y comercializado en pocos países del mundo.

Hasta conocer más datos publicados sobre este fármaco en relación con la lactancia, pueden ser preferibles alternativas conocidas más seguras, especialmente durante el periodo neonatal y en caso de prematuridad.

Suggestions made at e-lactancia are done by APILAM team of health professionals, and are based on updated scientific publications. It is not intended to replace the relationship you have with your doctor but to compound it. The pharmaceutical industry contraindicates breastfeeding, mistakenly and without scientific reasons, in most of the drug data sheets.
