Tiludronate Levels and Effects while Breastfeeding

Summary of Use during Lactation

Because no information is available on the use of tiludronate during breastfeeding, an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant. However, absorption of tiludronate by a breastfed infant is unlikely.

Drug Levels

Tiludronate is highly bound to calcium and is poorly absorbed orally (average in adults 6% on an empty stomach, 0.6% with food), so absorption of tiludronate by a breastfed infant is unlikely.
