Question

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

Answer by DrLact: About Abemaciclib usage in lactation

No information is available on the clinical use of abemaciclib during breastfeeding. Because abemaciclib and its metabolites are over 90% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. However, the manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during abemaciclib therapy and for 3 weeks after the final dose.
