Is it allowed to take Fluphenazine during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

It is used as a depot drug which has a long half-life span. No data on transfer into breastmilk are available. Avoid it whenever possible. No side-effects have been described, as a caution however, choose the shortest half-life span anti-psychotic phenotiazine drugs.

I experienced a horrible sense of restlessness! I was instructed to discontinue use of the medicine because it is a severe reaction (side effect) of this drug. I had hoped for a better result.
