Because there is no published experience with 2-Chloro-6-amino-9-(2-deoxy-beta-D-erythropentofuranosyl)purine during breastfeeding, it should be avoided during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.[1][2] One group of authors recommends withholding breastfeeding for at 48 hours after a dose and longer in patients with impaired kidney function.[2] Chemotherapy may adversely affect the normal microbiome and chemical makeup of breastmilk.[3] Women who receive chemotherapy during pregnancy are more likely to have difficulty nursing their infant.[4]
