Is 123I-FP-CIT Safe in Breastfeeding

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use 123I-FP-CIT? Is 123I-FP-CIT safe for nursing mother and child? Does 123I-FP-CIT extracts into breast milk? Does 123I-FP-CIT has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can 123I-FP-CIT influence milk supply or can 123I-FP-CIT decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Information in this record refers to the use of 123I-FP-CIT as a diagnostic agent. The Society of Nuclear Medicine recommends that breastfeeding be interrupted for at least 1 day and possibly up to 6 days following tracer doses of 123I-FP-CIT;[1] however, the manufacturer states that breastfeeding should be interrupted for 6 days after administration of 123I-FP-CIT to a nursing mother. During the period of interruption, the breasts should be emptied regularly and completely. If the mother has expressed and saved milk prior to the examination, she can feed it to the infant during the period of nursing interruption.[2][3][4] The milk that is pumped by the mother during the time of breastfeeding interruption can either be discarded or stored refrigerated and given to the infant after 10 physical half-lives, or about 5.5 days, have elapsed since pumping. Mothers concerned about the level of radioactivity in their milk could ask to have it tested at a nuclear medicine facility at their hospital. When the radioactivity is at a safe level she may resume breastfeeding. A method for measuring milk radioactivity and determining the time when a mother can safely resume breastfeeding has been published.[5]
