A member asked:

I believe my uti medication is slowing down breast milk production, will i start to produce more milk once im off the antibiotics?

Not sure: The commonly used antibiotics shouldn't interfere with lactation. Ask your doctor about prescribing an ulcer medication called reglan (metoclopramide). This can help increase milk production.
