Cabgolin 0.5 Tablet is used to treat high prolactin levels, which can cause infertility, irregular periods, or unwanted breast milk production. It is also used to stop lactation after childbirth, miscarriage, or abortion. Additionally, it is used to manage hormonal imbalances due to pituitary tumors or unknown causes.
In women, high levels of prolactin (a hormone responsible for breast milk production) cause changes in women’s ovulation, menstrual cycle, and breast milk production. In men, high levels of prolactin cause difficulty in reproduction and create sexual problems like reduced sexual drive and inability to keep or get an erection.
Cabgolin 0.5 contains the active ingredient cabergoline. It contains 0.5 mg of cabergoline, a dopamine agonist and a prescription drug. Cabgolin 0.5 also finds its use in fertility issues in women. Additionally, this medication may enable pregnancy if hyperprolactinemia is the sole cause of infertility.
