It is a loop diuretic with actions and uses similar to those of furosemide. It is used in the treatment of edema associated with heart failure, kidney and liver disorders, and in . hypertension. Oral administration once or twice a day.
At the date of the last update we did not find any published data on its excretion in breast milk.
Its high protein-binding capacity and short acting (short half-life) make excretion into breast milk in significant amount unlikely.
Long-term treatment with diuretic drugs may compromise the state of hydration of the nursing mother. Must make an adjustment (decrease) of the dose based on the estimated milk production and monitor milk production. Use a lower dose as possible, especially during the first postnatal month.
Until more published data is known about this drug in relation to breastfeeding, known safer alternatives are preferable (Kearney 2018), especially during the neonatal period and in the event of prematurity.
