Answer by Dr. Ru: About Meloxicamum [Latin] usage in lactation
At latest update, relevant information on excretion into breast milk was not found. Due to a high serum-protein-binding capacity, excretion into breast milk seems to be unlikely. Until more information on this drug is available, another know therapeutic alternative should be preferred, especially in cases of breastfeeding an infant younger than one month or prematures.
