دوبيسيلات كالسيوم

Likely Compatibility

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

A drug to which the ability to reduce capillary permeability is attributed. Used to treat diabetic retinopathy and hemorrhoids.
Administered orally in two daily doses.

Since the last update we have not found published data on its excretion in breastmilk, although the manufacturer indicates negligible excretion in breastmilk (OMPharma 2018, AEMPS 2017).

As there is less published information than for other drugs from the same group, safer known alternatives may be preferable during the neonatal period and in case of prematurity.

Alternatives

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.

Jose Maria Paricio, Founder & President of APILAM/e-Lactancia

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.
