Drug Levels and Effects
Summary of Use during Lactation
No information is available on the excretion of naloxegol into breastmilk. Because of the possibility of inducing opioid withdrawal in the breastfed infant, the manufacturer states that breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment with naloxegol. If it is used, observe breastfed infants who have been exposed to opioids during pregnancy or postpartum for signs of opioid withdrawal, especially diarrhea. An alternate drug may be preferable.
