Answer by DrLact: About UNII-6315412YVF usage in lactation

No information is available on the use of UNII-6315412YVF during breastfeeding. Fluoroquinolones have traditionally not been used in infants because of concern about adverse effects on the infants' developing joints. However, recent studies indicate little risk.[1][2] The calcium in milk might prevent absorption of fluoroquinolones in milk,[3] but insufficient data exist to prove or disprove this assertion. Use of UNII-6315412YVF is acceptable in nursing mothers. However, it is preferable to use an alternate drug for which safety information is available.
