Excerpt

Dothiepin is not approved for marketing in the United States by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, but is available in other countries. Limited information indicates that maternal doses of up to 225 mg daily produce low levels in milk and breastfed infants' serum, and cause no adverse developmental consequences. Dothiepin would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants, especially if the infant is older than 2 months.
