Answer by DrLact: About UNII-D3FM8FA78T usage in lactation

UNII-D3FM8FA78T has a high molecular weight, so it is unlikely to pass into breastmilk in clinically important amounts. It also has a short half-life and it is a peptide that is likely digested in the infant's gastrointestinal tract, so it is unlikely to reach the clinically important levels in infant serum. If UNII-D3FM8FA78T is required by the mother, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding. However, because no information is available on the use of UNII-D3FM8FA78T during breastfeeding an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant. Monitor breastfed infants for signs of hypoglycemia such as jitteriness, excessive sleepiness, poor feeding, seizures cyanosis, apnea, or hypothermia. If there is concern, monitoring of the breastfed infant's blood glucose is advisable during maternal therapy with UNII-D3FM8FA78T.[1]
