Composition:-
Cabergoline .25 mg
Uses:-
Cabergoline 0.25 mg is primarily used to treat hyperprolactinemia, a condition where there is an abnormally high level of prolactin in the blood. High prolactin levels can cause symptoms such as unwanted breast milk production, missed periods, and fertility problems in women, and decreased libido and fertility issues in men. By lowering prolactin levels, Cabergoline helps restore normal menstrual cycles and improve fertility. It is also used to treat disorders associated with high prolactin levels, such as prolactinomas (prolactin-secreting tumors).
Side Effects:-
Common side effects of Cabergoline 0.25 mg include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, dizziness, and fatigue. Some people might experience constipation, headaches, or nasal congestion. Serious side effects, although rare, can include heart valve problems and fibrosis (thickening and scarring of tissue) affecting the lungs, heart, or abdomen. Symptoms of these serious conditions include shortness of breath, chest pain, or swelling in the legs. If any severe or persistent side effects occur, it is important to contact a healthcare provider immediately.
Indication:-
Cabergoline 0.25 mg is indicated for the treatment of hyperprolactinemia, which can be caused by various factors, including pituitary tumors and certain medications. This medication is used in both men and women to reduce prolactin levels and alleviate the symptoms associated with high prolactin. It helps restore normal reproductive function and can shrink prolactin-secreting tumors.
