Answer by Dr. Ru: About Siroxyl usage in lactation

On latest update, no relevant published data related to excretion into breast milk were found. It is a product that has only mild or few side-effects when used at normal dose. The absorption from ingested mother's milk to the infant's plasma is hampered by a low oral bioavailability, with this being a reason for a nil or minimal plasma level in the infant, except in prematures or soon after birth when absorption would be higher.
