Parlodel Information

Parlodel (Bromocriptine) is a versatile medication used to treat a variety of conditions. It is used to treat conditions with abnormally high levels of the hormone prolactin in the blood (hyperprolactinemia). Unusually high prolactin levels have been implicated in some cases of menstrual irregularities, abnormal milky discharge from the nipple, and infertility in women. Essentially, Parlodel can help treat these symptoms associated with hyperprolactinemia. Parlodel is also used to manage and may even shrink certain types of pituitary tumors (prolactinomas) that produce too much prolactin, such as pituitary adenoma.

Asides from its role in regulating prolactin levels, bromocriptine can be used alone or along with other medications (like levodopa) to help manage the signs and symptoms of Parkinson's disease, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a dopamine deficiency in the brain, leading to movement and coordination abnormalities. Parlodel has also been proven effective in treating acromegaly, a condition in which the pituitary gland produces excess growth hormone. Parlodel is used to help lower these elevated growth hormone levels, sometimes alongside surgery or radiation therapy.

Bromocriptine is a semi-synthetic ergot alkaloid derivative, which works mainly as a dopamine receptor agonist. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that, when it acts on its receptors in the brain, helps inhibit the secretion of prolactin. Bromocriptine acts like dopamine by stimulating these receptors, thereby blocking prolactin secretion. This dopaminergic effect makes it helpful in treating acromegaly and Parkinson's disease, as it blocks the release of growth hormone and enhances dopamine's effects on movement and balance.
