Is Nabumetone compatible with breastfeeding? Do we have alternatives for Nabumetone?
Nabumetone
March 30, 2014 (Low Risk)
Latest update failed to find relevant data on breastfeeding.
Both a high molecular weight and high plasma protein-binding makes excretion into breast milk unlikely.
The infant is further protected because of a low oral bioavailability.
Until more information on this drug concerning breastfeeding is available, a safer alternative should be preferred.
