Volatile liquid. The first product used in anesthesia (Campbell 1894, Coppinger 1879). Today it is not used in many countries due to its dangerous nature (highly flammable) and side effects: mucosal irritability, delirium, postanesthetic vomiting (Campbell 1894), etc. It may still be used in limited settings due to the unavailability of other anaesthetics (Morgans 2018). Administration by inhalation.Some of its derivatives, such as dimethyl ether, are still used as solvents and local anesthetics and in cosmetic products.
Since the last update we have not found published data on its excretion in breast milk. Its short half-life (Butler 1964) would allow breastfeeding as soon as the mother is awake and is in a suitable condition.
The popular custom in some cultures of applying creams containing ether on the abdomen for the purpose of slimming or firming during the postpartum period may be dangerous for the infant because of the anesthetic effects of the ether. Furthermore, as stated in the safety data sheets for this product: "Causes skin irritation... Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking". (Chemos 2019, NJ 2002)
