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

Short-acting benzodiacepine. Diazepam active metabolite. Excreted into breast milk in non-significant level. No harm effects on breastfed infants have been shown. Eventual and low dose use of benzodiacepines are compatible with breastfeeding. Use the short-acting benzodiazepine and minimal effective dose as possible mostly in the neonatal period. Check-up for infant sedation and feeding problems. Bed-sharing is not recommended for mothers who are taking this medication.
