Answer by Dr. Ru: About HSDB 3094 usage in lactation

The high molecular weight of both standard or non-fractionated HSDB 3094, and, so-called low molecular weight HSDB 3094 makes excretion into breast milk extremely difficult. Dalteparin has been shown not to be excreted into breast milk . In addition, HSDB 3094s are inactivated in the GE tract where they are not absorbed which is reason to have a nil oral bioavailability. Absence of anti-clotting activity in breastfed infants has been shown after treatment of the mother with Enoxaparin. Risk of HSDB 3094-induced Thrombocytopenia or Osteoporosis in the mother is lower with low weight HSDB 3094s. Eleventh WHO Model List of Essential Drugs 2002: Compatible with breastfeeding.

Answer by DrLact: About HSDB 3094 usage in lactation

Although HSDB 3094 itself has not been studied, low molecular weight HSDB 3094s (e.g., dalteparin, enoxaparin) are not excreted into breastmilk in clinically relevant amounts. Because HSDB 3094 has an even higher molecular weight of 3000 to 30,000 daltons, it would not be expected to be appreciably excreted into breastmilk or absorbed by the infant. No special precautions are required.[1]
