Drug Levels and Effects
Summary of Use during Lactation
Tapinarof has not been studied during breastfeeding. Because it is poorly absorbed after topical application, it is considered a low risk to the nursing infant.[1] Do not apply tapinarof directly to the nipple and areola and ensure that the infant's skin does not come into direct contact with the areas of skin that have been treated.
