The aim of this study was to provide data to aid decision making regarding lithium use during lactation. Three women treated with lithium for bipolar disorder during pregnancy and lactation and their four infants provided lithium levels at 1 month postpartum. Infant levels ranged from 10% to 17% of maternal levels. Two infants experienced early feeding problems which were overcome with breastfeeding education and support. Women taking lithium can be supported to breastfeed, and their infants should be followed closely until breastfeeding is well established.
本研究旨在提供数据,以辅助决策在哺乳期使用锂。三位患有双相情感障碍的女性在怀孕期间和哺乳期接受锂治疗,她们的四个婴儿在产后 1 个月时提供了锂水平。婴儿的锂水平范围为母亲水平的 10%至 17%。两名婴儿出现了早期喂养问题,通过母乳喂养教育和支持得到了解决。可以支持服用锂的女性进行母乳喂养,并且应该密切关注她们的婴儿,直到母乳喂养得到很好的建立。
