Method: an integrative literature review that surveyed the bases BDENF, LILACS and MEDLINE with the descriptors "lactation disorders", "breastfeeding", "galactogogues", in portuguese, english and spanish, until the year 2011. The final sample was formed of 27 articles. Results: the most prevalent galactogogues were: black beer, hydration, hominy, chicken soup, metoclopramide, chlorpromazine, domperidone, fenugreek and fennel. Conclusion: the culture permeates practice of breastfeeding and therefore must be considered by health professionals in guidance and encouragement to breastfeeding.
