Review
Naloxone
Excerpt
Naloxone is excreted into milk in very small amounts and is not detectable in the plasma of breastfed infants because of its very poor oral bioavailability. Routine use of naloxone in combination products is of no concern during breastfeeding. However, if naloxone is required by the mother for an opioid overdose, she should withhold nursing until the opioid is out of her system.
