Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use HN-2? Is HN-2 safe for nursing mother and child? Does HN-2 extracts into breast milk? Does HN-2 has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can HN-2 influence milk supply or can HN-2 decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?
