Answer by DrLact: About Telavic usage in lactation
Telavic 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 Telavic not breastfeed their infants.
