Information from one patient indicates that the drug may be used in nursing mothers; however, more data are needed. Since glycosylated belatacept has a molecular weight of 92,300 Da, it is unlikely to appear in milk. The manufacturer recommends avoiding nursing if belatacept is given. Because the drug's half-life is 8 to 10 days, it may be more than a month after a dose before the drug is absent from breastmilk. Waiting for at least 2 weeks postpartum to resume therapy may minimize transfer to the infant.[1]
