A member asked:

Is the buscopan tab safe for lactating mother ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Relatively: This anticholinergic is considered relatively safe during lactation when used at regular doses. It was once used in babies with colic but stopped due to a variety of side effects. These have not been seen as an issue if mom uses it during breast feeding.See.Hale t, "medications and mothers milk" 15ed, 2012.
