I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Rhenium-186 HEDP? Is Rhenium-186 HEDP safe for nursing mother and child? Does Rhenium-186 HEDP extracts into breast milk? Does Rhenium-186 HEDP has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Rhenium-186 HEDP influence milk supply or can Rhenium-186 HEDP decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
Information in this record refers to the use of rhenium-186 HEDP (rhenium-186 etidronate) as a therapeutic agent. No information is available on the therapeutic use of rhenium HEDP during breastfeeding. Because strontium can substitute for calcium in infant bones, the manufacturer and expert opinion recommend discontinuing breastfeeding before a nursing mother receives rhenium HEDP.[1]
