A member asked:

Took hctz (hydrochlorothiazide) for two days. breast milk supply has immediately, drastically reduced. will my supply come back if i stop the medicine?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unknown: Diuretics or "water pills" should not directly affect your breast milk production...But if it is dehydrating you, i suppose that it could. Talk to your doc about stopping it and/or really increasing your fluid intake and see if that helps. Good luck!
