Answer by DrLact: About LY 570310 usage in lactation

LY 570310 is not marketed in the United States and has not been studied in nursing mothers. Because it must be used with ribavirin and peginterferon alfa, it is not considered a good choice during breastfeeding. When it was marketed, the manufacturer recommended that mothers taking LY 570310 not breastfeed their infants.
