In my experience, I've had moms react poorly to Reglan (depression) and others who have done magnificently (over a year of use due to the fact that they were not breastfeeding, but exclusively pumping for very sick babies). Those who used Reglan long-term effectively, even stopped and started it as they needed to - when milk supply went down, they'd use Reglan for a week or so, get the milk supply up, then stop it (no weaning, just stopped) and kept up their milk supply for a while, then it would go down again, they'd take Reglan again and so on. These moms worked, had very sick babies and lots of stress - but depression did not occur. I wonder if there is a safe "trial period" to find out if a mom is sensitive to Reglan. The cases that I had that stopped it due to depression, the symptom occurred quite quickly after starting the Reglan. However, one mom I saw for SORE nipples was taking Reglan for gastrointestinal problems - and was surprised when I asked about depression - she had been feeling depressed but no one had suggested that the Reglan could be the culprit - when she stopped it she was fine (not the sore nipples, the depression - the sore nipples were fixed with positioning, not pills).
