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

Answer by DrLact: About Revefenacin usage in lactation

No information is available on the use of revefenacin during breastfeeding. Because the drug is only 3% absorbed orally, it is unlikely to affect the breastfed infant. Long-term use of revefenacin might reduce milk production or milk letdown. During long-term use, observe for signs of decreased lactation (e.g., insatiety, poor weight gain).
