Summary
Brief summary
This study aims to determine the extent of transfer of parecoxib into human breast milk. It is hoped to demonstate that the infant doses of parecoxib received in breast milk of women in early stage lactation and receiving this drug for pain control are not sufficient to cause concern about adverse effects in the neonate.
