Question

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

Answer by DrLact: About Brigatinib usage in lactation

No information is available on the clinical use of brigatinib during breastfeeding. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during brigatinib therapy and for 1 week after the final dose.
