Can spider venom get in your breastmilk if you are bitten by venomous spider?

Hypothetical: yes it can, and breastfeeding should be avoided then and during treatment with the antivenom as well, wish you wellness,

No: The effect of the venom is local – none can get into your breast milk; it severely affects the area of the bite; it does not cause a systemic reaction unless you become allergic
