And we all learned with the "warning" that compounding pharmacies are not under the jurisdiction of the FDA. So a physician can prescribe domperidone to be compounded if she sees a need. 
 
I am now reading a book exposing the extent of the pharmaceutical companies' control of the FDA (US) and regulatory agencies in other countries. It is an eye opener. I keep thinking of the influence that the formula (pharmaceutical) companies had in the FDA warning against domperidone and the timing of the warning to coincide with the publicity about their influence on the AAP and the Breastfeeding Campaign. 
 
It's all about profits.
