Caberdost 0.5mg | Cabergoline | Treatment for High Prolactin Levels

Introduction of Caberdost 0.5mg

Caberdost 0.5 mg Tablet contains Cabergoline, a dopamine receptor agonist primarily used to treat hyperprolactinemia—a condition characterized by abnormally high levels of prolactin hormone in the blood. Elevated prolactin can cause menstrual disturbances, infertility, galactorrhea (inappropriate lactation), and sexual dysfunction in both men and women.

Cabergoline in Caberdost acts by stimulating dopamine receptors in the brain, which inhibits prolactin secretion from the pituitary gland. It is also effective in treating pituitary adenomas (prolactinomas) and may be used in some cases of Parkinson’s disease under medical supervision.

✅ Key Benefits:

• Reduces prolactin levels effectively
  
  

• Helps restore normal menstrual cycles in women
  
  

• Aids in treating infertility linked to hyperprolactinemia
  
  

• Reduces symptoms of prolactin-secreting tumors (prolactinomas)
  
  

• May be beneficial in Parkinson’s-related movement disorders
  
  

✅ How Caberdost 0.5 mg Works:

Cabergoline mimics the action of dopamine by binding to dopamine D2 receptors. Dopamine naturally inhibits prolactin secretion; thus, Caberdost suppresses the overproduction of prolactin by acting on the pituitary gland, normalizing hormone levels and relieving associated symptoms.

✅ Common Uses:

• Hyperprolactinemia (high prolactin levels)
  
  

• Prolactinomas (pituitary tumors producing prolactin)
  
  

• Menstrual irregularities, amenorrhea (absence of periods)
  
  

• Infertility in women due to high prolactin
  
  

• Reduced libido or erectile dysfunction in men caused by hormonal imbalance
  
  

• As adjunct therapy in Parkinson’s disease (under strict medical supervision)
  
  

✅ Dosage & Administration:

• Typically prescribed as 0.25 mg to 0.5 mg per week, may be increased gradually
  
  

• Can be taken with or without food
  
  

• Dosage is tailored based on prolactin levels and patient response
  
  

• Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully
  
  

Do not self-adjust or abruptly stop the dose without consulting your doctor.

✅ Side Effects:

• Nausea, vomiting
  
  

• Dizziness or fatigue
  
  

• Constipation
  
  

• Headache
  
  

✅ Precautions:

• Use cautiously in patients with heart valve disorders or lung/pleural issues
  
  

• Not recommended during pregnancy unless advised by a doctor
  
  

• Avoid breastfeeding while on Caberdost, as it suppresses milk production
  
  

• Use with caution if you have low blood pressure or mental health conditions
  
  

• Inform your doctor about all medications, especially those for mental health, hypertension, or Parkinson’s
