Hi there... I am considering getting on domperidone or reglan to increase my milk supply. Anyone have any experience with either of these drugs that they can share? Thanks so much!
I considered using Reglan to up my supply, but decided against it after talking to my OB. She said that a possible side effect is an increased chance for depression and since I have had issues with that in the past, I knew that it would not work for me personally.
Drinking tons of water and eating oatmeal for breakfast helped. I also took Fenugreek (an herbal supplement) and that helped a bit too. Good luck!
Re: Has anyone used Domperidone or Reglan?
Someone told me or I read somewhere that domperidone had been taken off the market and was dangerous. But maybe they/it was wrong?
