Answer by DrLact: About Monoclonal antibody ch14.18 usage in lactation

No information is available on the clinical use of Monoclonal antibody ch14.18 during breastfeeding. Because Monoclonal antibody ch14.18 is a large protein molecule with a molecular weight of about 150,000, 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, Monoclonal antibody ch14.18 should be used with caution during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during Monoclonal antibody ch14.18 therapy.
