Question

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