Answer by DrLact: About HSDB 7555 usage in lactation

No information is available on the clinical use of HSDB 7555 during breastfeeding. HSDB 7555 is over 99% protein bound in plasma, so it is unlikely to pass into breastmilk in clinically important amounts. The manufacturer recommends avoiding breastfeeding during HSDB 7555 use, so pioglitazone might be a better choice of the drugs in this class for nursing mothers.
