"1. Is typical that herbal remedies lose their effectiveness after several
months?"

No. But it's pretty common to notice a decrease in supply at various points
along the way. Check the archives - there's been discussion about this.

 "2.  If she begins taking Reglan, does she need to stop taking the
     Fenugreek?"

I don't know, but this is something I"ve wondered about too. Hope we find
out here!

"3.  How long can she stay on Reglan.  Will this typically lose
     effectiveness after a period of time?"

Isn't 7 - 10 days the usually recommended course? Don't know if it's a great
idea to stay on longer than 2 weeks. Be sure to ask her about a history of
depression, and warn her that if she's at all inclined to depression this
might not be a good choice for her.
