Answer by Dr. Ru: About HSDB 7984 usage in lactation
Alpha-glucosidase inhibitor which acts within the gastrointestinal tract without being absorbed, reducing intestinal absorption of glucose. Very low risk of hypoglycemia in monotherapy. Since the last update we have not found any published data on its excretion in breast milk. Its pharmacokinetic data (moderately elevated molecular weight and very low intestinal absorption) make it unlikely that it would pass to breast milk in significant amounts (Serrano 2014, Everett 1997). Diet, exercise, and breastfeeding improve blood sugar levels.
Answer by DrLact: About HSDB 7984 usage in lactation
Because less than 2% of a dose of HSDB 7984 is absorbed from the mother's gastrointestinal tract, it is unlikely that any drug reaches the infant through breastmilk.[1]
