Is SKI 606 Safe in Breastfeeding
Question
I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use SKI 606? Is SKI 606 safe for nursing mother and child? Does SKI 606 extracts into breast milk? Does SKI 606 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can SKI 606 influence milk supply or can SKI 606 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
Answer by DrLact: About SKI 606 usage in lactation
No information is available on the clinical use of SKI 606 during breastfeeding. Because SKI 606 is 96% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. However, its half-life is about 22 hours and it might accumulate in the infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during SKI 606 therapy.
