Hi. My son is now 11 months old and I want to stop breastfeeding as I frequently face engorgement and plugged ducts. My gynecologist has prescribed cabergoline tablets. 25 mg 4 tablets twice a day for 2 days. I was also advised not to express milk after starting tablets. After taking 2 tablets my breast got engorged. I consulted my gynae, she told to express. Now I have completed the coarse of 4 tablets still my breasts are full, when will my milk dry up completely.

Hello, Don't worry. Stop breastfeeding and any other form of breast manipulation. You may try blong: one such twice daily for 14 days. Blong contains pyridoxine which is a vitamin and inhibits breast milk.
