Summary of Use during Lactation

There is no published experience with zavegepant during breastfeeding. Zavegepant is 90% protein bound, so levels in milk are likely low. If zavegepant is required by the mother of an older infant, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding, but until more data become available, an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
