Answer by DrLact: About CD152 antigen usage in lactation

No information is available on the use of CD152 antigen during breastfeeding. The manufacturer recommends avoiding nursing if CD152 antigen is given. Because the drug's half-life is 8 to 10 days, it may be more than a month after a dose before the drug is absent from breastmilk.
