    Hi, thanks for your post.

    There have not been any direct studies on phenazopyridine's transfer into milk. It is likely that some gets into the milk but probably not much. The drug itself is unlikely to be harmful to infants in small quantities.

    Please call us at the InfantRisk Center if this has not completely answered your question.*(806)352-2519
