Answer by DrLact: About Gilteritinib usage in lactation
No information is available on gilteritinib during breastfeeding. It is 94% bound to plasma proteins, so amounts in milk are likely to be low; however, it has a long half-life of about 113 hours. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during gilteritinib therapy and for 2 months after the last dose.
