Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Angiomax? Is Angiomax safe for nursing mother and child? Does Angiomax extracts into breast milk? Does Angiomax has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Angiomax influence milk supply or can Angiomax decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
