domperidone

I got a prescription for domperidone from my dr. Where can I get it filled? My DH took it to the pharmacy and they could not find it in their database.

 Thanks

  • I'm Canadian and we can get it at any pharmacy here.  However, I've heard that in the states you must get it at a "compound pharmacy".  I've also heard that ladies on here have ordered it online.  Sorry I'm not much help!

  • Where are you? Canada can not ship it to the USA any more. I got mine from in housepharmacy.biz. I think that's new Zealand... It took about 8 days to get to me but that was the free shipping.

    Good luck I hope it works very well

    This.  I used it throughout my nursing DS and it was fabulous!  I was so happy to have a drug that helped me produce enough and it kept me from quitting.  I also ordered through inhouse pharmacy and never had an issue.  The brand name is Motillum on there. If you order a small amount and find out that it really works for you, make the next order a large pack, as it's cheaper that way and because it takes two weeks or so to ship to the states.  If you want it faster, you can go to a compounding pharmacy in the United States to get it, but they actually have to make the drug there, and thus it will cost you an arm and a leg.

  • How much domperidone do you take? My dr thought it was 30 mg 3 times a day.
    Thanks

    Yes.  That's the best starting dosage.  You'll want to wean down from that after your supply increases.  Here's some good info!
