Enoxolone is a glycyrrhizinic acid derivative that is extracted from the root of licorice.
Anti-inflammatory effect when topically applied (skin, mouth, throat and rectum).
At latest update no published data on excretion into breast milk were found.
The small dose and poor plasma uptake of most topical oral and dermatological preparations make it very unlikely that significant amounts will pass into breast milk.
Systemic absorption of topical oral and dermatological enoxolone is minimal (Morikane 2020, AEMPS 2019).
Enoxolone enhances corticosteroid activity by inhibiting a cortisol-inactivating enzyme, so it can cause severe toxicity (elevation of sodium and reduction of potassium levels) after systemic administration (Omar 2012).
There is a case report of systemic toxicity following extensive topical use (Navarre 2002).
It can cause allergic contact dermatitis (Tanaka 2001).
It is not recommended a prolonged use of this product during lactation.
Avoid applying it on the breast, otherwise, clean it thoroughly before breastfeeding.
