To : Crystal Re : Sotradecol (Na Tetradecyl) Na Tetradecyl sulfate is a sclerosing agent used to destroy varicose veins. There are virtually no data on sodium tetradecyl or its transfer into human milk. I would imagine small doses might but I can find no kinetic data such as half-life or metabolism, or anything that would reassure me of its safety. I doubt it would be a major problem if the mom were to wait for 24 hours after the dose but I believe that using such a med while breastfeeding may not really be appropriate.
