Is it allowed to take Recombinant Hirudin during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

Hirudin is a 65 aminoacid-containing protein that has a direct inhibitory effect on thrombin, which is extracted from leech. Due to a higher molecular weight, excretion to breast milk and absorption are unlikely.
