An adoptive mom I work with has twice experienced depressive symptoms when
she's d'cd use of Domperidone; the first time she stopped the Domperidone "cold
turkey" and the second time per our discussion, she gradually reduced the dose
and her depression was less severe but there nonetheless.  Has anyone else
seen this with Domperidone?  I'm also wondering if it doesn't have more to do
with the reduction of prolactin levels and not the drug itself.

She experienced symptoms of sadness, lack of libidio, mild agitation and
fairly high anxiety; symptoms abated in a week or so (support, frequent contact
and active listening/discussion of her feelings of inadequacy re infertility and
inability to produce much milk also seemed to help).

She's doing well now and back to feeling pleased that her baby's at breast
regardless of supply.    Thoughts, Karleen? Darillyn? others?
