Suggestions made at e-lactancia are done by APILAM team of health professionals, and are based on updated scientific publications. It is not intended to replace the relationship you have with your doctor but to compound it. The pharmaceutical industry contraindicates breastfeeding, mistakenly and without scientific reasons, in most of the drug data sheets.
Your contribution is essential for this service to continue to exist. We need the generosity of people like you who believe in the benefits of breastfeeding.
Thank you for helping to protect and promote breastfeeding.

It is a human immunoglobulin rich in IgG antibodies against the erythrocyte antigen Rho (D). Intramuscular administration.
Since the last update we have not found any published data on its excretion in breast milk.
Its very high molecular weight make it highly unlikely that significant quantities will pass into breast milk. Administration of standard immunoglobulin does not significantly alter the levels of immunoglobulins (IgG or IgM) in colostrum or breast milk. (Palmeira 2009)
No problems have been observed in infants whose mothers are treated with Rho(D) immune globulin. (Hale, LactMed)
Expert authors consider the use of this medication safe during breastfeeding. (Hale, LactMed, Lawrence 2016, Schaefer 2015)
