Answer by DrLact: About Dexrazoxanum usage in lactation
No information is available on the use of Dexrazoxanum during breastfeeding. The manufacturer recommends that women not breastfeed during treatment and for 2 weeks following the final dose of Dexrazoxanum. However, because Dexrazoxanum is used with doxorubicin, the abstinence period might be longer, depending on the doxorubicin dose.
