dc.description.abstractMilk production of the mammary gland is mainly determined by the milk synthesis and proliferation abilities of mammary epithelial cells (MECs). The availability of amino acids is critical for the production of milk. Amino acids enhance milk protein synthesis and mammary gland development through the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway. Taurine enhances lactation by increasing prolactin secretion. Vitamins such as Thiamine and Pyridoxine are essential for maintaining and growing maternal and child health. However, there is a paucity of data regarding the safety and efficacy of amino acids and vitamins combination in lactating mothers with insufficient lactation. Hence, a prospective study was conducted to assess the safety and efficacy of a novel amino acids and vitamins combination. The results showed that with the intervention of this combination, 62% of participants showed onset of lactation within 45 minutes to 2 hours. The study suggests clinicians should consider this novel combination to improve lactation in insufficient lactating mothersen_US
