Answer by DrLact: About Budesonidum usage in lactation
The amounts of inhaled Budesonidum excreted into breastmilk are minute and infant exposure is negligible. When taken by mouth, Budesonidum is only about 9% bioavailable; bioavailability in the infant is likely to be similarly low for any Budesonidum that enters the breastmilk. Most experts consider oral and inhaled corticosteroids, including Budesonidum, acceptable to use during breastfeeding.[1][2][3][4][5]
