Answer by DrLact: About Monoclonal antibody PRO70769 usage in lactation

No information is available on the clinical use of Monoclonal antibody PRO70769 during breastfeeding. Because Monoclonal antibody PRO70769 is a large protein molecule with a molecular weight of about 148,000, 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, Monoclonal antibody PRO70769 should be used with caution during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
