Was surprised to read that bromocriptine not avail in U.S. as it was
prescribed (Parlodel) within the last 12 months to mom I was working with.
She had severe mastitis, low milk, depression, flat nipples and you-name-it.
Called her OB in the middle of the night on a weekend (about day 10) and
expressed great displeasure -- hence his rx of Parlodel. She was weaned in a
flash and was delighted.
This is not my idea of a good approach but then it wasn't my phone she rang
in the wee hours of the morning!
