MotiliumProduct: MotiliumDrug Name: Domperidone Packaging Type: Box of 100 10mg tablets Manufacturer: Janssen-Cilag Pty Ltd Prices:
There is NO requirement to forward a prescription when ordering. There is NO online consultation required. Use Motilium is an oral galactogogue (used for maternal lactation augmentation). Domperidone is dramatically effective in increasing the milk supply and does not have the negative central nervous system (CNS) effects common to other prescription galactogogues such as metoclopramide (Reglan™). The reason that domperidone does not have these side effects is because, unlike metoclopramide, it does not cross the blood-brain barrier. Dosage 20-40mg, 3-4 times per day during daytime, preferrably an hour and a half after meals. Most mothers report an increase in their milk supplies within three to four days after beginning domperidone, although the response may occur sooner. The increase, however, builds over the first few weeks and does not reach the maximum effect until around the third week. The galactogenic effect will subside when the drug is discontinued. |
