Jake,

Could you clarify for me?  I was under the strong impression that
domperidone was only disallowed by the FDA for off-label use by nursing
moms.  I thought this did not have "legality" per se, but just meant
non-compounding pharmacies were not permitted to dispense it.  It sounds
like you're saying that domperidone is totally and legally off-limits to
anyone in the US for any purpose, to the point that even prescribing it or
obtaining it from another country is breaking the law.  Was there a change
there that i missed at some point or was it always this way?
