Can I Take Humalog Mix75/25 While Breastfeeding?
Most healthcare providers consider insulins safe for women who are breastfeeding. Although no studies have been done to see if Humalog Mix75/25 passes through breast milk in humans, this probably does not matter. Even if it does pass through breast milk, it would likely be destroyed in the digestive tract of the infant. Insulin is a protein that is digested and inactivated when taken by mouth. This is why insulin cannot be taken by mouth and must be injected.
