In the Journal of Breastfeeding Medicine VOL 3 Number 1 2008 on pg 34 there
is article "Methadone Maintenance and Long-term Lactation" in which women
that were methadone-maintained had blood and breastmilk sampled up to 6 mo
postpartum. The abstract states "concentrations were low".
I don't have the direct link but this journal is on the web for free this month
thanks to the publisher.
