Dicloxacillin crosses the placenta (Depp 1970; MacAulay 1968; Seiga 1974).
Penicillin class antibiotics cross the placenta in varying degrees. Dicloxacillin is highly protein bound, which may influence fetal exposure (Nau 1987).
As a class, penicillin antibiotics are widely used in pregnant women. Based on available data, penicillin antibiotics are generally considered compatible for use during pregnancy (Ailes 2016; Bookstaver 2015; Crider 2009; Damkier 2019; Lamont 2014; Muanda 2017a; Muanda 2017b).
Dicloxacillin is present in breast milk (Matsuda 1984; Muysson 2020).
Data related to the presence of dicloxacillin in breast milk has been located from 2 studies.
• A single oral dose of dicloxacillin 250 mg was administered to 2 or 3 women 5 to 7 days postpartum. Breast milk concentrations were ≤0.3 mcg/mL over a 6-hour period, with the highest concentrations observed 4 hours after the maternal dose. In contrast, the highest maternal serum concentration (5.2 mcg/mL) was found 1 hour after the dose, decreasing to ≤0.4 mcg/mL 6 hours after the dose (Matsuda 1984). Using a breast milk concentration of 0.3 mcg/mL, the relative infant dose (RID) of dicloxacillin is 0.09% to 0.18% compared to an infant therapeutic dose of 25 to 50 mg/kg/day, providing an estimated daily infant dose via breast milk of 0.045 mg/kg/day.
• The RID of dicloxacillin was calculated by the authors of a second study following multiple doses for the treatment of mastitis. Included were 3 women, 1 to 6 months postpartum, receiving dicloxacillin 500 mg every 6 hours; breast milk was sampled at intervals from 0 to 6 hours after the maternal dose on or after the fourth day of therapy. The highest breast milk concentration was 0.0676 mcg/mL, which occurred 4 hours after the maternal dose. Authors of the study calculated the RID of dicloxacillin to be 0.03% of the weight-adjusted maternal dose, providing an estimated daily dose of 0.008 mg/kg/day via breast milk (Muysson 2020).
• In general, breastfeeding is considered acceptable when the RID is <10% (Anderson 2016; Ito 2000).
In general, antibiotics that are present in breast milk may cause non–dose-related modification of bowel flora. Monitor infants for GI disturbances, such as thrush or diarrhea (WHO 2002).
Although the manufacturer recommends that caution be exercised when administering dicloxacillin to patients who are breastfeeding, penicillins are considered compatible with breastfeeding when used in usual recommended doses (WHO 2002).
Dicloxacillin is a recommended antibiotic for the empiric treatment of bacterial mastitis in patients who are breastfeeding. Antibiotic use may be considered when symptoms are present for >24 hours and have not responded to conservative measures, or the patient has symptoms such as fever or tachycardia. Consider a milk culture if symptoms do not improve after 48 hours of antibiotic therapy. The diagnosis of mastitis does not require interruption of breastfeeding (ABM [Mitchell 2022]; WHO 2000).
Baseline and periodic CBC with differential; periodic BUN, serum creatinine, AST and ALT (especially with prolonged therapy); prothrombin time if patient concurrently on warfarin; signs of anaphylaxis during first dose
Inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to one or more of the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) which in turn inhibits the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis in bacterial cell walls, thus inhibiting cell wall biosynthesis. Bacteria eventually lyse due to ongoing activity of cell wall autolytic enzymes (autolysins and murein hydrolases) while cell wall assembly is arrested.
