Prolactin
Prolactin and treatment options: What you need to know
Prolactin is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland. While it plays an important role in reproduction and breastfeeding, high prolactin levels (hyperprolactinaemia) can cause unwanted symptoms such as irregular periods, infertility, low libido, and, in some cases, galactorrhoea (milk production outside of pregnancy or breastfeeding).
For people diagnosed with hyperprolactinaemia, treatment is often required to restore hormone balance. That’s where prolactin-lowering medications come in.
Is there a prolactin drug?
Yes. There are medications specifically designed to reduce prolactin levels. These are known as dopamine agonists, which work by stimulating dopamine receptors in the brain, thereby reducing prolactin secretion from the pituitary gland.
Two of the most widely prescribed drugs are:
- Cabergoline
- Bromocriptine
Both are effective in lowering prolactin, but they differ in terms of dosing, side effects, and tolerability.
Which drug is best for prolactin?
Medical guidelines often recommend cabergoline as the first-line treatment for high prolactin. It is generally considered more effective and better tolerated compared to bromocriptine. Cabergoline requires fewer doses per week, which makes it easier for patients to follow.
At Titan Pharma X, we provide Cabergoline 0.5mg, a trusted option for managing high prolactin levels under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional.
Is cabergoline safe during pregnancy?
The use of cabergoline during pregnancy should always be discussed with a healthcare professional. Current evidence suggests that doctors may safely prescribe cabergoline in some cases, especially when discontinuing treatment could lead to complications. However, medical supervision is essential.
Women who are planning to conceive or who become pregnant while on cabergoline should seek specialist advice promptly.
