Canagliflozin Levels and Effects while Breastfeeding
Summary of Use during Lactation
No information is available on the clinical use of canagliflozin during breastfeeding. Canagliflozin is an uncharged molecule that is 99% protein bound in plasma, so it is unlikely to pass into breastmilk in clinically important amounts. The manufacturer does not recommend canagliflozin during breastfeeding because of a theoretical risk to the infant's developing kidney. An alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
