Answer by DrLact: About AI3-15320 usage in lactation

AI3-15320 is used as a dietary supplement to increase muscle mass and improve exercise performance. Although AI3-15320 is a normal component of human milk, milk levels of AI3-15320 have not been measured after exogenous administration in humans. AI3-15320 is converted into creatinine in the mother's and infant's bodies. It may increase the infant's serum creatinine, which may alter estimations of the infant's kidney function.[1] Some authors speculate that AI3-15320 supplementation of nursing mothers might help avoid AI3-15320 deficiency syndromes, but no studies are available that test this hypothesis.[2] Until more data are available, it is probably best to avoid AI3-15320 supplementation unless it is prescribed by a healthcare professional.
