Summary of Use during Lactation

No information is available on the clinical use of galsulfase during breastfeeding. Because it is a large protein molecule with a molecular weight of about 56,000 Da, the amount in milk is likely to be very low and absorption is unlikely because it is probably destroyed in the infant's gastrointestinal tract. If the mother requires galsulfase, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding. Until more data are available, use galsulfase with infant careful monitoring during breastfeeding.
