Answer by DrLact: About HSDB 8257 usage in lactation
No information is available on the clinical use of HSDB 8257 during breastfeeding. Because HSDB 8257 is a large protein molecule with a molecular weight of about 149,000, the amount in milk is likely to be very low and absorption is unlikely because it is probably destroyed in the infant's gastrointestinal tract. Until more data become available, HSDB 8257 should be used with caution during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during HSDB 8257 therapy and for 4 months after the last dose.
