Is Kisqali Safe in Breastfeeding
Question
I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use Kisqali? Is Kisqali safe for nursing mother and child? Does Kisqali extracts into breast milk? Does Kisqali has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can Kisqali influence milk supply or can Kisqali decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
Answer by DrLact: About Kisqali usage in lactation
No information is available on the clinical use of Kisqali during breastfeeding. Because protein binding of Kisqali is 70%, clinically important amounts of the drug might pass into breastmilk. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during Kisqali therapy and for at least 3 weeks after the final dose.
