Domperidone is available at compounding pharmacies throughout the US.
We've had several mothers obtain it (with an Rx) in Illinois.  There is
nothing illegal about Domperidone in the US... it's just that the makers
of Domperidone (Motilium) have chosen not to go through the time and
expense of having it approved by our FDA.  This means that they cannot
package and distribute it commercially in our country.  But since it's not
a 'controlled substance',  compounding it for use for a patient with a
Dr.'s Rx is not a problem.
