Answer by Dr. Ru: About CPP 109 usage in lactation
Excreted into breast milk in a clinically non-significant amount. Because of a low oral bioavailability the pass from the breast milk toward the infant's plasma is hampered, except in premature and newborn infants who may exhibit a higher intestinal absorption due to an increased permeability.
Answer by DrLact: About CPP 109 usage in lactation
Limited information indicates that maternal doses of vigabatrin up to 2000 mg daily produce low levels in milk and would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants, especially if the infant is older than 2 months. Until more data are available, vigabatrin should only be used with careful monitoring during breastfeeding.
