Is Clonixin compatible with breastfeeding? Do we have alternatives for Clonixin?

Clonixin

October 22, 2016 (Low Risk)

At the date of last update, we did not find published data on its excretion in breast milk.

Their pharmacokinetic data (high percentage of protein binding and short half-life) make the passage to milk of significant quantities unlikely.

Until more published data on this drug in relation to breastfeeding are known, safer known alternatives may be preferable, especially during the neonatal period and in case of prematurity.
