Is UNII-4QW4AN84NQ Safe in Breastfeeding
Question
I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use UNII-4QW4AN84NQ? Is UNII-4QW4AN84NQ safe for nursing mother and child? Does UNII-4QW4AN84NQ extracts into breast milk? Does UNII-4QW4AN84NQ has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can UNII-4QW4AN84NQ influence milk supply or can UNII-4QW4AN84NQ decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by Dr. Ru: About UNII-4QW4AN84NQ usage in lactation
The high molecular weight of both standard or non-fractionated UNII-4QW4AN84NQ, and, so-called low molecular weight UNII-4QW4AN84NQ makes excretion into breast milk extremely difficult. Dalteparin has been shown not to be excreted into breast milk . In addition, UNII-4QW4AN84NQs 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 UNII-4QW4AN84NQ-induced Thrombocytopenia or Osteoporosis in the mother is lower with low weight UNII-4QW4AN84NQs.

Answer by DrLact: About UNII-4QW4AN84NQ usage in lactation
Although UNII-4QW4AN84NQ itself has not been studied, low molecular weight UNII-4QW4AN84NQs (e.g., dalteparin, enoxaparin) are not excreted into breastmilk in clinically relevant amounts. Because UNII-4QW4AN84NQ 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]
