No information is available on the use of methscopolamine bromide during breastfeeding. Because methscopolamine bromide is a quaternary ammonium compound, it is not likely to be absorbed and reach the bloodstream of the infant. Long-term use of methscopolamine bromide might reduce milk production or milk letdown, but a single dose is unlikely to interfere with breastfeeding. During long-term use, observe for signs of decreased lactation (e.g., insatiety, poor weight gain).
To substantially diminish the amount of drug that reaches the breastmilk after using eye drops, place pressure over the tear duct by the corner of the eye for 1 minute or more, then remove the excess solution with an absorbent tissue.
