Answer by DrLact: About UNII-655M5O3W0U usage in lactation

UNII-655M5O3W0U 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 UNII-655M5O3W0U not breastfeed their infants.
