I started Diflucan a week and a half ago for yeast in my milk ducts. My milk culture came back this week and also showed a staph infection, so I started Keflex on Thursday. In the past 3 days on it, I have gone from pumping 5-9 oz per session to 1-3 oz, (4 oz once, in the morning). My boobs don't feel full like they did before starting the antibiotics, my 5 1/2 week old is nursing constantly, and I feel like I'm fighting a losing battle. I am already eating oatmeal daily, and using MotherLove More Milk. I am considering calling my doc tomorrow and asking for a prescription for Reglan. Looking for advice and help from anyone who may have been in a similar situation. Will my supply return after I finish the meds?? I've already been through hell trying to establish and continue bf, I want her to have the milk, but unsure what to do here. I need all this resolved by the time I have to return to work mid August!
 
drink lots of water ..this also happened to me a few months back! Nurse nurse nurse pump pump pump and loads of water!
 
reglan will help but the side effects can be damaging as its main one is depression! It crosses the blood brain barrier! There is also domperidone if you can get ahold of it...pm me!
 
I think I read domperidone wasn't used in the US? I may have read it wrong though. I did pm you, thank you for responding.
