Frequently asked questions
Can you take regadenoson while breastfeeding?
No information is available on the use of regadenoson during breastfeeding. The full record is quoted on this page, and the decision is one to make with the person who prescribed it — LactMed itself states it is not a substitute for professional judgement.
Does regadenoson pass into breastmilk?
LactMed's measured drug levels for regadenoson are quoted in full on this page, under "How much gets into breastmilk".
Do I need to pump and dump after taking regadenoson?
LactMed does not frame its records that way — it reports measured drug levels in milk and what has been observed in breastfed infants, which is what this page quotes. "Pump and dump" advice for a specific drug and dose should come from your clinician or a pharmacist, not from a general rule.
