Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use ZD6474? Is ZD6474 safe for nursing mother and child? Does ZD6474 extracts into breast milk? Does ZD6474 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can ZD6474 influence milk supply or can ZD6474 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About ZD6474 usage in lactation

No information is available on the clinical use of ZD6474 during breastfeeding. Because ZD6474 is 90% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. However, its half-life is 19 days and it might accumulate in the infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during ZD6474 therapy and for 4 months after the last dose.
