Answer by DrLact: About HSDB 7336 usage in lactation

HSDB 7336 is used as a dietary supplement to increase muscle mass and improve exercise performance. Although HSDB 7336 is a normal component of human milk, milk levels of HSDB 7336 have not been measured after exogenous administration in humans. HSDB 7336 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 HSDB 7336 supplementation of nursing mothers might help avoid HSDB 7336 deficiency syndromes, but no studies are available that test this hypothesis.[2] Until more data are available, it is probably best to avoid HSDB 7336 supplementation unless it is prescribed by a healthcare professional.
