Four factors are needed in order to understand problems related to breast-feeding by mothers taking psychotropic medication:
the prescribed dose; the level of the drug in the mother’s blood plasma; the level in the breast milk; and the levels in the infant’s serum.
![Page 12: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Medication’s diffusion across membranes, Molecular weight and its lipophilicity.
The timing of the dose in relation to the
infant’s feeding patterns.
Drug’s dosage and frequency, its pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics.
![Page 13: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Maternal / Infant / Drug
Maternal:• Drug dosage and duration of therapy
• Route and frequency of administration
• Metabolism
• Renal clearance
• Blood flow to the breasts
• Milk pH and composition
![Page 14: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Maternal / Infant / Drug
Infant:• Age of the infant -preterm - full term 3w 8-12w• Feeding pattern
• Amount of breast milk consumed
• Drug absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination
![Page 15: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Most drugs are transferred into milk by the passive diffusion processes and hence maternal drug .
Active or carrier-mediated transport occurs for some. Drugs must pass from the maternal plasma, through the
capillary walls, into the alveolar cells lining milk duct. During the first few days of life there are large gaps
between these alveolar cells, which allow most molecules to cross through easily.
![Page 16: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
For psychotropics the arbitrary concentration in the
infant’s plasma of 10% of the established therapeutic
maternal dose is used as the upper threshold where the
risks of a particular drug’s side-effects are low and
treatment is accepted as safe
![Page 17: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The newborn’s health should be taken into consideration when planning breast-feeding
Preterm immature infants should not be exposed to psychotropics
Infants’ hepatic, renal and cardiac functions should be checked before they are breast-fed by mothers on psychotropic medication
![Page 18: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Infants older than 10 weeks are at a lower risk for adverse effects of tricyclics and there is no evidence of accumulation in the infant
The newborn should be examined regularly for any possible adverse events of medication
All professionals involved in the care of the infant should be informed of psychotropic medication usage
![Page 19: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Increase risk of suicide after initiation of medication
If significant anxiety or insomnia present, consider adding benzodiazepine
Close follow-up
![Page 20: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
SSRI SSRI preferred initially. Drug levels are low to undetectable. All effective in open trials (Moretti, 2009). SSRIs such as fluoxetine, sertraline, paroxetine and
citalopram are safe during breast-feeding (Berle, 2004). Sertraline is considered as first line in USA (Altshuler
et al. (2001).
![Page 21: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Tricyclics have a less favorable side effect profile and a much higher risk of morbidity and mortality from overdose.
However, it is relatively safer and low levels of drugs are secreted for most tricyclics.
Tricyclics such as amitryptyline, imipramine, nortriptyline and clomipramine are safe during breast-feeding (Becker, 2009).
Doxepin is contraindicated (respiratory depression).
![Page 22: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Trazodone appears to be of lower risk because only 1%
passes into the milk, although drowsiness and poor
feeding have been reported. Data are limited to a few
cases and caution is advised in use of the drug.
![Page 23: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
- It has been mentioned in certain studies that Mirtazapine can be used as first-line treatment and, because of its action on histamine H1 receptors, may be preferred in some patients with postnatal depression, when night-time sedation is required (Snellen, 2007)
![Page 24: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Venlafaxine is considered safe (Snellen, 2007).
Bupropion: Few studies found no adverse effects (in one case, it lead to occurance of seizure in the new born) (Becker, 2009).
![Page 25: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Conventional antipsychotics have been used for decades and the accumulated data show that they are safe during breast-feeding (Phenothiazines may increase risk of SIDS).
New information is starting to emerge about some atypical antipsychotics such as olanzapine and risperidone but their safety has yet to be established (Moreeti,2009)
![Page 26: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
There is currently no information on quetiapine and amisulpride and therefore it is not safe to expose newborns to these medications
Clozapine accumulates in breast milk and is contraindicated during breast-feeding
![Page 27: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Lithium is contraindicated during breast-feeding (high serum level, but 3 studies recommended its use with caution if no other options available. (Hale , 2004)
There is little evidence of adverse events in infants breast-fed by mothers taking carbamazepine or sodium valproate, although transient hepatic toxicity is possible with the former (Moretti, 2009)
Lamotrigine is considered moderately safe in practice
(But with high serum level in infant-be careful of risk of Steven Johnson syndrome) (Becker, 2009).
![Page 28: Hala Salah Lecturer of psychiatry. Prenatal Classes Newspaper articles Community lectures Family involvement in the educational process Routine](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103023/56649db35503460f94aa2e56/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
It is unsafe to expose infants to repeated doses of long-acting benzodiazepines
Shorter acting agents such as oxazepam, alprazolam and lorazepam are preferred by most authors (Becker, 2009). It must be used for short term.
Buspirone, zaleplon and zopiclone are better avoided because of limited safety data on their use.

Psychiatric emergency! Inpatient treatment Mood stabilizers Antipsychotics Benzodiazepines Lithium prophylaxis Electroconvulsive therapy

The decision to prescribe antipsychotics to breast-feeding women should depend on individual risk/benefit analysis
The current available research does not allow any absolute and clear recommendation because much of the work on psychotropic medication in breast-feeding is limited to single case reports, small series and naturalistic data collection
Causes and consequences of different adverse events are not yet widely studied
