What Are The Side Effects Of Leptaden?

Hi, I am first time mom. My little one is 1 month old. I am worried that whether he is getting enough milk or not, as the milk flow is reduced. One of my friend advised starting leptaden. Can you please suggest how long to take it and if it is safe or not? Also how much time shall I wait before checking other options once starting this tab. Thanks a lot in advance.
