Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Cyclosporine IS distributed in the milk and there have been no studies proving it's safety for nursing puppies. The drug is not recommended that women nurse their babies while on it. I would call your Vet to discuss an alternative. I wish you the best!
