there is another drug that can be used for hyperprolactinemia. it is called cabergoline. cabergoline acts in the same way as bromocriptine and that is by increasing dopamine in the tuberoinfundibular tract of the hypothalamus. on the other hand, it can take weeks for bromocriptine to show its effects. this is because the pituitary responds to dopamine rather slowly. bromocriptine has a high success rate for reducing prolactin and the best way to assess its efficacy is by a blood test for prolactin.
Pergolide was removed from United States markets for human use (it is still given to horses) in 2007 after some studies revealed a link between the drug and valvular heart disease.
