Answer by DrLact: About MP-214 usage in lactation

No information is available on the use of MP-214 during breastfeeding. If MP-214 is required by the mother of an older infant, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding, but until more data become available, an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
