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.
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.

Dopamine is a sympathomimetic catecholamine used to treat hemodynamic imbalances, poor perfusion of vital organs, low cardiac output and hypotension arising from situations such as acute heart failure, cardiogenic shock, myocardial infarction, renal failure, cardiac surgery and septic shock. Intravenous infusion administration.
At the time of the last update, we found no published data on its excretion in breast milk.
Its very short elimination half-life (2 minutes) makes it very unlikely to pass into breast milk in significant quantities.
Its lack of oral bioavailability makes it difficult for it to pass into infant plasma from ingested breast milk, since it is degraded in the gastrointestinal tract and is not absorbed.
Dopamine inhibits prolactin release from the anterior pituitary (Fitzgerald 2008, Ben 2001), but once breastfeeding is established, milk secretion depends little on prolactin and there are no publications on dopamine and milk production.
