A known and safer alternative should be preferred until more published data on this drug related to breastfeeding is available within the first 6 mo after birth, especially during the neonatal period and in case prematurity.
Exposure through breastmilk may be minimized by waiting at least 6 hours before resuming breastfeed after the last dose of drug.
