Answer by Dr. Ru: About AY 24236 usage in lactation

Since the last update we have not found published data on its excretion in breast milk. Its high percentage of plasma protein binding make it very unlikely that significant amounts will pass into breast milk. Until there is more published data on this drug in relation to breastfeeding, safer known alternatives may be preferable, especially during the neonatal period and in case of prematurity.

Because no information is available on the use of AY 24236 during breastfeeding, an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
