Excerpt

Limited data indicate that oseltamivir and its active metabolite are poorly excreted into breastmilk. Maternal dosages of 150 mg daily produce low levels in milk and would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in breastfed infants. Infants over 2 weeks of age can receive oseltamivir directly in doses much larger than those in breastmilk.
