I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use AF-802? Is AF-802 safe for nursing mother and child? Does AF-802 extracts into breast milk? Does AF-802 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can AF-802 influence milk supply or can AF-802 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
No information is available on the clinical use of AF-802 during breastfeeding. Because AF-802 is more than 99% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. However, its half-life is about 33 hours and it might accumulate in the infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during AF-802 therapy and for 1 week after the last dose.
