The Protocols for Induced Lactation — A Guide for Maximising Breastmilk Production
By Jack Newman, MD, FRCPC and Lenore Goldfarb, Ph.D., CCC, IBCLC

Based on the original Induced Lactation Protocol conceived and published by Jack Newman MD

The Newman-Goldfarb protocols were developed from information published in Dr. Newman’s book “Dr. Jack Newman’s Guide to Breastfeeding” (Harper-Collins, 2000). In the US the title is “The Ultimate Breastfeeding Book of Answers” by Dr. Jack Newman (Prima Publishing, 2000).

You can find more information on domperidone in The Newman-Goldfarb protocols.

Domperidone:How it works and how it compares to Reglan

Domperidone was initially prescribed for people with upper gastrointestinal problems. It was discovered to have a side effect that results in prolactin levels that could in turn cause lactation. A similar drug called Reglan is used in the U.S. to induce lactation, however, it is not recommended for long-term use in lactating women.
