Question

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

Answer by DrLact: About Falcynate-LF usage in lactation

Falcynate-LF have not been studied in nursing mothers. Estimates of its excretion into breastmilk indicate that amounts in milk are very low. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention consider the drug combination acceptable for use in mothers nursing an infant weighing at least 5 kg (11 pounds) and it can be given directly to infants weighing 5 kg or more.[1] The safety of the combination in breastfed infants under 5 kg is not known.
