    I think it safe to use it since it has no relevant effect on your breast milk.

    JM95,

    Topical use is probably ok. Only 1.4% is absorbed systemically after topical application. "It is unlikely that the amount absorbed via topical application would produce clinically relevant concentrations in breastmilk."(Medications and Mothers' Milk database, Dr Thomas Hale PhD).
