Re: anybody use reglan?

  • Not taking reglan, but instead taking domperidone/motilium.  I've heard reglan can cause depression issues, so be sure to check it out.

  • I used reglan with my first child.  It did work for me to increase supply.  It took two rounds of five days each (I think it's five, but maybe it was 10).  I was not working at the time, which was good because the reglan completely knocked me out to the point that I was not able to safely drive.

  • BE VERY CAREFUL TAKING REGLAN!  My OB prescribed it to me and I took it for about 2 months.  It helped a little, but it gave me horrible anxiety and depression.  I got to a point where I was having a hard time caring for myself and my baby. It was horrible.  If you try it, please quit taking it at the first sign of any feeling that is out of the ordinary as it gets worse pretty quick.

    I'm now taking domperidone.  It has been amazing and I've had no side effects whatsoever.  My supply is way up.  LO is gaining weight like crazy and is always satisfied after a feed.  Before this, he used to cry after a feed and still acted hungry. At work I would pump about 8 oz after 3 pumping sessions.  Now I pump about 15 oz after 3 pumping sessions, so my supply has nearly doubled. Domperidone was my last resort to EBF and if it didn't work I was going to quit. I've been on it for about 6 weeks now.  I take 3 pills 3x a day (sometimes 2x a day if I forget to take it). I ordered it from inhousepharmacy.biz . Good luck.
