Excerpt

No information is available on the use of repaglinide during breastfeeding. Repaglinide is a weak acid that is over 98% protein bound, so it is unlikely to pass into breastmilk in clinically important amounts. Monitor breastfed infants for signs of hypoglycemia such as jitteriness, excessive sleepiness, poor feeding, seizures cyanosis, apnea, or hypothermia. If there is concern, monitoring of the breastfed infant's blood glucose is advisable during maternal therapy with repaglinide.[1] However, an alternate drug may be preferred, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
