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.
Your contribution is essential for this service to continue to exist. We need the generosity of people like you who believe in the benefits of breastfeeding.
Thank you for helping to protect and promote breastfeeding.

1st generation antihistamine derived from ethylenediamine with important sedative and antimuscarinic effects. Oral administration every 6 to 8 hours or intramuscular.
At the time of the last update, we did not find published data on its excretion in breast milk. Drug with little bibliographic support and marketed in very few countries (Eastern Europe, Mexico).
Monitor somnolence and adequate infant feeding.
It has an antiprolactin effect that could inhibit lactation in the first weeks after delivery.
Due to its sedative effect, bed-sharing with the infant is not recommended if this drug is being taken. (UNICEF 2018, 2017, 2017, 2014, 2014, 2013 and 2006, Landa 2012, ABM 2008)
Until we know more published data on this drug in relation to breastfeeding, safer known alternatives are preferable.
