Hi,
A couple of months ago I posted about induced lactation for a mum from Pakistan who somehow got my number in Northern Ireland!!!  I passed on some info to her but could not help her re the medications she was looking for.  Last Tuesday by chance I discovered that domperidone/motillium is available over the counter in the UK.  It is fairly affordable but much cheaper if a Dr will prescribe it.  I have emailed the mum from Pakistan and she has found a Dr there she is working with on inducing lactation thank goodness. Thought this info might be of use to other LC's in the UK.  Normally I would never think of using it, however a mum I am supporting with slow weight gain seems to have a problem with stress reducing her supply.  She tried herbs and felt they did not work.  So she suggested domperidone herself.  I hope it works for her.  I think if baby puts on weight well she will relax and hopefully her supply will improve too without meds.
Best wishes and Happy New Year,
Sarah.
