In one study of 22 women 15 mg midazolam given orally
each evening produced no detectable level of midozolam
seven hours after dose, even 5 days postpartum. Midazolam
disappears rapidly from milk with undetectable levels after 4
hours. Waiting 4 hours after dose would expose the infant to
minimal midazolam.
