Here's the research as is accessible via google on injections of the drug: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

The short answer, long-term oral/systemic corticosteroids aren't great for anyone, but short-term or locally, they're unlikely to do any serious damage and they work well and help a lot of people greatly.
In the end, though, strangers on the internet are not the ones to ask about what medication you should be taking for your condition. Does your doctor know you're nursing and yet prescribed it anyway? That would be the person to discuss your concerns with. If your doctor said to wean because of the medicine and you're uncomfortable doing so, then you might want to talk to your local la leche league for advice on alternatives or perhaps pumping until you've cleared the drug to maintain your supply.
If you're asking for someone else, there may be a polite way to say, "Oh, wow, (x condition) sounds so tough, and the doctor treating you knows you have the extra load on your body being a nursing mom, I'm sure. Please let me know how I can help." After you suggest she talk to her doctor about it, assume both have the child's interests at heart as well.
Hope that helps!

I think xasten isnt good for nursing mothers, its used to treat arthritis, and one of the side effects includes weight gain:. therefore i think its a disadvantage and can cause complications while nursing. I hope this answers your question.
