Answer by DrLact: About UNII-CU8D464EDW usage in lactation

Because UNII-CU8D464EDW is poorly absorbed orally, it is not likely to reach the bloodstream of the infant or cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants. However, there is no published experience with UNII-CU8D464EDW during breastfeeding, so an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
