Is it allowed to take Betaxolol-Hcl Ophtalmic Use during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

It is a beta-blocking drug topically used for glaucoma. It is not likely secreted into breast milk. Use it cautiously anyway. Like most ophthalmologic compounds for topical use a low dose and poor absorption make it compatible with breastfeeding.
