Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Efinaconazole? Is Efinaconazole safe for nursing mother and child? Does Efinaconazole extracts into breast milk? Does Efinaconazole has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Efinaconazole influence milk supply or can Efinaconazole decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About Efinaconazole usage in lactation

Topical efinaconazole has not been studied during breastfeeding. Because maternal blood levels are very low after topical application to the toenails, it is unlikely that a measurable amount of the drug will enter the breastmilk.
