Breastfeeding: No published data exist on the use of formoterol by inhaler during lactation. Very little formoterol is expected to be excreted into breastmilk. Therefore it is acceptable during breastfeeding because of the low bioavailability and maternal serum levels after use. Safety of inhaled mometasone is unknown. Very little inhaled mometasone is expected to be excreted into breastmilk. Therefore it is acceptable during breastfeeding. This information is based upon LactMed database (available at http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/htmlgen?LACT last accessed 23 May 2011). Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants, manufacturer recommends discontinuation of nursing or discontinuation of therapy, taking into account the importance of the therapy to the mother.
