The important part of Hale's review is that "It is poorly absorbed (<0.4%) 
and plasma levels are extremely low.  While we do  not have data in 
breastfeeding mothers, it is unlikely enough would enter the maternal plasma 
compartment to produce clinically relevant levels in milk."

However the adult dose is mentioned as 200 mg TID for 3 days!  Another issue 
is that it is brand new and  maybe an older med would work   just as  well 
in this situation.

This would be a good case to go to the Infant Risk Center.  Perhaps, if mom 
takes med, baby can be monitored via blood tests and provide info for the 
next time this comes up.  Hope this helps.  Pat in SNJ
