Since this drug is a macromolecular protein, and since it has to be given
parentally to be effective, I do not see how much drug could enter the infant's
plasma since any amount in breast milk should be broken down in the baby's GIT.
If Tom Hale in online, since he has experience with these types of drugs, maybe
