Reconsider FDA approval for the generic drug domperidone.

Created by J.T. on December 31, 2014

The generic drug domperidone has been used off-label to successfully induce lactation in adoptive mothers and to achieve relactation. Due to the lack of FDA approval, women are forced to buy domperidone from overseas, often without a prescription and without doctor knowledge, because although the drug is known to be much safer than approved alternatives, such as Reglan, doctors will not prescribe it, despite the great results achieved by many mothers. This medication is legal in most other developed countries. This is a safe and beneficial medication.

Breastmilk is the best food for all babies. Thousands of babies would be at greater risk of SIDS, allergies, asthma, GI issues, and dozens of other medical complaints, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical expenses.
