Hello dear
Understand your concern
Cabergolin is Dopamine D2 receptor agonist and act on prolactin cell on the brain that lead to reduced breast milk production (because decrease in milk production) It should not be taken while breast feeding as it will secret in the milk.
Take following advice to increased breast milk production:
Do not take cabergoline more.
continue Capsule lactare for two week
Granule galact with milk.
Offer breast milk every 2 hourly as it increased the breast milk production, offer both breast simultaneously and ensure there is proper attachment of baby to breast.
Take High protein diet,garlic, jeera, wheat and fruits like papaya.
Natural remedies: drum stick leave/juice can be use.
Drink 2-3 liters fluid daily and take 2-3 glass of milk daily.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
