During the lactation period there comes a time when for certain reasons it is necessary to stop breastfeeding. Not all women experience a gradual, gradual decline in milk production, so in this case, the use of tablets from breast milk will be quite effective.
Hormonal preparations
It is known that the formation of breast milk is regulated by hormone prolactin. Therefore, in order to reduce lactation, it is necessary to use drugs that suppress prolactin production. To date, it is not difficult to find tablets for the disappearance of breast milk in pharmacies.
We will analyze in more detail, how to pick up pills, so that breast milk is gone, and what preparations exist. The most commonly used for the burning of breast milk are tablets Dostinex or Bromocriptine. These are hormonal preparations. Dostinex directly acts on the prolactin-secreting cells of the pituitary gland. Use these pills that burn breast milk, it is necessary for two days, by the floor of the pill every 12 hours.
Bromocriptine also blocks the formation of prolactin by the pituitary cells and prevents the excretion of breast milk. For the suppression of lactation, the drug is recommended for use for two weeks. At the same time on the first day the dose is minimal (usually 2, 5 mg is taken once), then within a couple of days the dose is increased to 5 mg per day, divided into two doses. In the future, the dosage is not increased.
Side effect of drugs
Tablets for the combustion of breast milk are effective, but cause a number of side effects. For example, even after a short-term use of Dostinex, the appearance of pain in the abdomen and dyspeptic phenomena in the form of nausea and vomiting. Also, the occurrence of headache, drowsiness, lowering of blood pressure, dizziness and even loss of consciousness is not excluded. But Bromocriptine should be taken with caution to women with severe liver disease, with valvular heart disease, as well as Parkinson's disease.
It is important to remember that these drugs are better tolerated if taken with food.
Alternative non-hormonal drugs
If there are contraindications to the use of hormones or simply if you do not want to use such drugs, you can try Bromcampor . First of all, the drug has a calming effect. The effect of using this medication may not be long-term and after a while lactation may resume.
