It is a cholecystokinin antagonist with an inhibitory effect on gastric secretion. Oral, intramuscular or intravenous administration in the treatment of peptic ulcer and other gastrointestinal disorders.

At the date of the last update we did not find any published data on its excretion in breast milk.

The absence of known pharmacokinetic data does not allow the prediction of its possible excretion in breast milk.

Cholecystocinin has been found in the brain and related to development of maternal behaviour in mammals.

Product with very few and/or very old bibliographic references, marketed in few countries.

Safer known alternatives are preferable during breastfeeding, especially during the neonatal period and in case of prematurity.

Alternatives

  • Famotidine (Safe product and/or breastfeeding is the best option.)
  • Nizatidine (Safe product and/or breastfeeding is the best option.)
  • Omeprazole (Safe product and/or breastfeeding is the best option.)
  • Sucralfate (Safe product and/or breastfeeding is the best option.)

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.
