A. hello theres no medication to stop the milk production. stop giving the milk and you can take it out and give for sometime rather than directly. slowly it will decrease and stop.

A. hi..Dehydration may prompt your body to increase milk production. You can stay hydrated to ensure that your milk supply is stable. It must be noted that studies have shown that increased water consumption does not increase the supply of milk. You can try natural remedies to dry up breast milk like drinking sage tea. You can also use sage essence mixed with your favourite drink. Taking Vitamin B6 may also aid in reducing milk production as Vitamin B6 stops the release of plasma prolactin in the body, which is chiefly responsible for producing breast milk. Your body supplies milk based on how much is expressed every day. You could try lowering the amount of milk expressed in a gradual manner. Drop one feed at a time. Day wean first and then proceed to night wean. You can try the ‘don’t offer-don’t refuse’ method. This involves not offering to nurse, and also not refusing your child’s desire to nurse.
