Any information available concerning maternal use of lacosamide (Vimpat) during pregnancy and postpartum; potential impact on newborn and levels in breastmilk?
No information available in LactMed...
Sorry absolutely nothing is available concerning the use of lacosamide in breastfeeding mothers. I give it a "probably safe" rating, but caution is still recommended.
