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.
Because no information is available on the use of Revmoksikam during breastfeeding, other agents may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
