Does Veltassa has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Veltassa influence milk supply or can Veltassa decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Because Veltassa is not orally absorbed it is unlikely to reach the breastmilk or adversely affect the breastfed infant. No special precautions are required.
