Annelies,
Moclobemide is a well used drug in Australia. It is not mentioned in Hale,
I presume because it is not marketed in the USA. It is used in Australia in
post-partum breastfeeding women. It is the subject of a large trial here
for postnatal depression. Less than 1% appears in the breastmilk and it is
not thought to be hazardous to the breastfeeding infant. The reference is
Pons G, Schoerlin MP, Tam YK et al. Moclobemide excretion in Human Milk.
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology,1990;29, No 1:27-31.
