INTRODUCTION
It also
helps in the management of acromegaly (abnormal growth during
adolescence) and is also capable of controlling signs and symptoms of
parkinsonism (a nerve disorder caused due to deficiency of a brain
chemical called dopamine).
Bromocriptine is a prolactin inhibitor
with dopamine agonistic activity. It exerts its effects by blocking the
production of a hormone called prolactin in the body. This helps in
reducing breast milk production, infertility problems and abnormal
growth (acromegaly) that are caused primarily due to abnormal prolactin
levels in blood. It also controls the symptoms of parkinsonism by
replacing the lost dopamine levels in the brain.
Prior and during
management with SICRIPTIN 1.25MG your doctor will regularly monitor
your heart (blood pressure), lungs and kidney functions to avoid the
risk of unwanted side effects. Women taking SICRIPTIN 1.25MG for a long
time must frequently undergo gynaecological examination and cervical
smear tests as a safety measure.
Before taking SICRIPTIN 1.25MG
inform your doctor if you have any liver problems, stomach problems,
fits, or severe headache. It is strictly not recommended for use in
women who suffered from very high blood pressure during their previous
pregnancies. It should be used in breast feeding mothers unless they
wish to stop breastfeeding. It is indicated to stop breast milk
production or to relieve painful breast engorgement only when other
non-medical means (such as firm breast support, ice application or use
of painkiller) did not provide adequate response.
Patients taking
SICRIPTIN 1.25MG must inform their doctor if they develop any unusual
