Objective: To create a nomogram that will guide lactating women who drink socially on how
to avoid neonatal exposure to ethanol through breast milk. Design: Pharmacokinetic …

Despite the lack of scientific evidence to support the claim that alcohol is a galactagogue,
lactating women have been advised to drink alcohol as an aid to lactation for centuries. To …

Ethanol experiences, during late gestation as well as during nursing, modify the behavioral
dynamics of the dam/pup dyad, and leads to heightened ethanol intake in the offspring. This …

Women from rural areas of the central plateau of Mexico drink during pregnancy and
lactation a mild alcoholic beverage called pulque as a galactogogue. Ethanol present in milk …

The effects of chronic ethanol consumption on lactational performance were studied in the
rat on day 15 after delivery by determining mammary gland and milk composition, while …

Maternal ethanol exposure during lactation induces behavioral alterations in offspring,
including disruptions in motor skills and heightened ethanol ingestion during adolescence …

Due to its wide range of deleterious effects on the unborn baby, knowledge on the
disposition of ethanol in the maternal-fetal unit is critical. This review summarizes and …

Moderate alcohol use by breastfeeding women appears to be relatively common. Alcohol
concentrates in breast milk at levels slightly higher than in maternal blood, peaking at 30-60 …

Background: Studies have shown repeatedly that ethanol pharmacokinetics are not linear,
yet most researchers still determine ethanol elimination by linear, zero‐order kinetics. The …

Aim: The aim of this paper is to provide a critical review of the most recent literature from
2005 onwards, on the effect of alcohol intake during lactation on the hormonal control of …
