Study description

The exposure of infants to drugs through breastmilk can be highly variable and depends on the dose ingested by the child along with the absorption, the distribution, the metabolism and the elimination of the drug by the child. Characterisation of this exposure is essential to provide recommendations for preventing toxicity in breastfed infants and assuring mother’s adequate treatment. This can be achieved by assessing the physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of the drugs and inter-individual variability due to characteristics of the mothers and breastfed infants. This study will allow suppling a European biobank located in Uppsala with samples of breast milk, from breastfeeding women taking venlafaxine provided by participants in Switzerland.
