Is Perinom Safe To Take For Breast Milk Secretion?

Hi, I have delivered a preterm baby girl on 13 Nov. Initially I was leaking milk but as my baby was in NICU for some time and is not able to suckle as full term babies I am having less milk at present. I understand the fact as I am not able to express enough milk. I let her suckle as many times during the day as possible as most of the time she is fast asleep. My doctor prescribed perinom. Is there any side effects to this medicine?

HI
Well come to HCM
In my opinion better to wait for some time the chances of good lactation may be likely, metoclopramide (Perinorm ) is the safe drug but some time this may cause toxicity and this could be disturbing and nothing else, hope this helps.
I find this answer helpful
