Does Fritillaria cirrhosa cause milk suppression?

Patient's question:

I don't know if it's because of the Fritillaria cirrhosa, but my milk production has decreased these last two days, and the child isn't getting enough. Is it related to the Fritillaria cirrhosa?

Doctor's answer:

There is no medical evidence that Fritillaria cirrhosa has the function of weaning, but it is still a medicinal herb. It should be used with caution during breastfeeding. Fritillaria cirrhosa is bitter and sweet, with a slightly cold nature. It is associated with the lung and heart meridians.
Function: Clearing heat, moistening the lungs, resolving phlegm, and stopping coughs. It can be used to treat lung heat cough, dry cough with little phlegm, yin deficiency cough, fatigue cough, and cough with blood. It should not be used with aconite-containing herbs. During breastfeeding, it is best to consume nutritious foods.
