Question

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

Answer by DrLact: About AHF-B usage in lactation

No information is available on the clinical use of AHF-B during breastfeeding. Because it is a large protein molecule, the amount in milk is likely to be very low and absorption is unlikely because it is probably destroyed in the infant's gastrointestinal tract. Until more data become available, AHF-B should be used with caution during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
