What about Vit B-6. See page 608 in Hale. It's an L4 in high doses because of reduced milk production. "Very high doses (600 mg/day) suppress prolactin secretion and therefore production of breastmilk." Although there are conflicting studies, I have personally heard anecdocal reports of success in stopping milk production.

Subject: URGENT REQUEST TO STOP MILK
Sorry to burden you with this. 9 month old killed in traffic accident 48
hours ago. Trying sage and cabbage but would like to know it any of you have
used a prescription med which stops milk flow with minimal side effects.
Please email me. (Still Lactnet nomail.)
Thanks.
