Question

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