Question

Does DRG-0283 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can DRG-0283 influence milk supply or can DRG-0283 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About DRG-0283 usage in lactation

The amount of DRG-0283 in milk is insufficient to treat tuberculosis in the breastfed infant. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other professional organizations state that breastfeeding should not be discouraged in women taking DRG-0283.[1][2][3]
