I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use MT103? Is MT103 safe for nursing mother and child? Does MT103 extracts into breast milk? Does MT103 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can MT103 influence milk supply or can MT103 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
Answer by DrLact: About MT103 usage in lactation
No information is available on the clinical use of MT103 during breastfeeding. Because MT103 is a large protein molecule with a molecular weight of about 54,000 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, MT103 should be used with caution during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during MT103 therapy and for at least 48 hours after treatment.
