No information is available on the use of Starsis during breastfeeding. Starsis is a weak acid that is over 98% protein bound, so it is unlikely to pass into breastmilk in clinically important amounts. If Starsis is required by the mother, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding. Monitor breastfed infants for signs of hypoglycemia such as jitteriness, excessive sleepiness, poor feeding, seizures cyanosis, apnea, or hypothermia. If there is concern, monitoring of the breastfed infant's blood glucose is advisable during maternal therapy with Starsis.[1] However, an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
