Answer by Dr. Ru: About SPP 100 usage in lactation

At latest update, relevant information on excretion into breast milk was not found. Because of pharmacokinetic data (wide distribution volume and moderately high molecular weight) excretion into breast milk in significant quantity seems to be unlikely. Based on a low oral bioavailability, concentration in the infant's plasma should be nil or low, except in premature and newborn infants with a increased intestinal absorption capacity.
