Answer by Dr. Ru: About Liquaemin usage in lactation

The high molecular weight of both standard or non-fractionated Liquaemin, and, so-called low molecular weight Liquaemin makes excretion into breast milk extremely difficult. Dalteparin has been shown not to be excreted into breast milk . In addition, Liquaemins 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 Liquaemin-induced Thrombocytopenia or Osteoporosis in the mother is lower with low weight Liquaemins. Eleventh WHO Model List of Essential Drugs 2002: Compatible with breastfeeding.

Answer by DrLact: About Liquaemin usage in lactation

Although Liquaemin itself has not been studied, low molecular weight Liquaemins (e.g., dalteparin, enoxaparin) are not excreted into breastmilk in clinically relevant amounts. Because Liquaemin 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]
