Caberlin 0.25 Tablet is typically prescribed to manage hyperprolactinemia, a condition where there is an excess of prolactin hormone in your body. This medicine belongs to the category of dopamine receptor agonists.

In addition to managing hyperprolactinemia, the medicine has other uses as well. It can help to stop milk production in women who have recently given birth, experienced a stillbirth, undergone an abortion, or had a missed pregnancy. It's also used in some cases to manage symptoms of Parkinson's disease. However, using the medicine for Parkinson's is considered an off-label use.

You should take this medicine orally as directed by your doctor. Before starting the medicine, make sure to inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications. If you notice any side effects while taking this medicine, notify your doctor immediately. For optimal results, continue to take the medicine for the duration prescribed by your doctor.

Dopamine Receptor Activation: Cabergoline acts as a dopamine receptor agonist. This means that it mimics dopamine, a neurotransmitter in your brain.
Prolactin Inhibition: By activating dopamine receptors, particularly those in the pituitary gland, cabergoline inhibits the synthesis and secretion of prolactin. This helps to regulate prolactin levels in your body.
Symptoms Management: By regulating prolactin levels, cabergoline helps to manage the symptoms associated with hyperprolactinemia such as unwanted breast milk production, irregular or absent menstrual periods in women, enlarged breasts and decreased sexual function in men.

Pregnancy

It is best to use Caberlin 0.25 Tablet during pregnancy only if the potential benefits justify the possible risks. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to conceive.
