Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.
First of all do not panic.
Your treating doctor has rightly suggested you the medication to stop breathing milk formation.
I will suggest you to take tablet Cabergoline 0.5 mg two tablets at a time and continue Pyricontin suggested as before.
Please get breast milk expressed our once before taking the medication.
Also do not allow baby to suck breast milk once you take the medicines.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
