No information is available on the clinical use of semaglutide during breastfeeding. Because semaglutide is a peptide molecule with a molecular weight of 4113 daltons and is over 99% protein bound, the amount in milk is likely to be very low. Absorption by the infant is unlikely because the drug is probably destroyed in the infant's gastrointestinal tract. Until more data become available, semaglutide should be used with caution during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
