Can Jencycla prevent milk production after delivery?

Hello, I was prescribed the Jenclycla pill and I started taking it right after giving birth but the instructions said to start taking it 3 weeks later if you are breastfeeding.

Good morning, ma'am,

Yes, Jencycla can interfere with milk production, especially very soon after delivery. For this reason, it is recommended to wait several weeks before starting it in order to start breastfeeding.

I will remain available if you have any further questions!

Sincerely,

Tom Samaha, pharmacist
