Home Forums Induced Lactation aka Adoptive Breastfeeding Medical Interventions to Induce Lactation/Increase Milk Supply forgetting to take dom

I just started the protocol a little more than a week ago, and I'm having a really hard time remembering to take the dom 4x per day. I always remember the morning and evening doses, but during the middle of the day, it's easy to get distracted, and I often forget to take 1 or 2 of the doses in the middle of the day.

Is is possible to take 40 mg twice daily rather than 20 mg 4 times a day?

thanks!
Nicole

Hi Nicole,

I now what you mean. It took me a few weeks to get use to taking it 4 times a day. From what I understand you need to have it in your system through the day, that is why you need to take it 4 times a day. I actually take 30mg 4 times a day...for me 20mg wasn't enough and the 30mg is much better, but this was after taking the 20mg for a couple of months.

Try setting a clock or reminder on your computer.

Nicole,
I think you can take 30 mg 3 times a day.

I did take 20 mg 4 times a day and then upped it to 30 mg 4 times a day. I took it first thing in the morning, with lunch, with dinner, and before bed. It became habit and I rarely missed. I just left the pills where I would see them when getting food ready and kept extra in my purse.
