Pharmacology

Bromocriptine mesilate is a nonhormonal, nonestrogenic agent that inhibits the secretion of prolactin in humans, with little or no effect on other pituitary hormones, except in patients with acromegaly, where it lowers elevated blood levels of growth hormone. Bromocriptine mesilate is a dopamine receptor agonist, which activates post-synaptic dopamine receptors.The dopaminergic neurons in the tuberoinfundibular process modulate the secretion of prolactin from the anterior pituitary by secreting a prolactin inhibitory factor (thought to be dopamine); in the corpus striatum the dopaminergic neurons are involved in the control of motor function. Clinically, it significantly reduces plasma levels of prolactin in patients with physiologically elevated prolactin as well as in patients with hyperprolactinemia.

 

Dosage & Administration

General: It is recommended that Bromocriptine mesilate be taken with food. Patients should be evaluated frequently during dose escalation to determine the lowest dosage that produces a therapeutic response.

Hyperprolactinemic lndications: The initial dosage is 0.5 mg to 2.5 mg tablet daily. An additional 2.5 mg tablet may be added to the treatment regimen as tolerated as tolerated every 2-7 days until an optimal therapeutic response is achieved.Based on limited data in children of age 11 to 15 the initial dose is 0.5 to 2.5 mg tablet daily. Dosing may need to be increased as tolerated until a therapeutic response is achieved. The therapeutic dosage ranged from 2.5-10 mg daily in children with prolactin-secreting pituitary adenomas.

Acromegaly: The initial recommended dosage is 0.5 to 2.5 mg on retiring (with food) for 3 days. An additional 0.5 to 2.5 mg should be added to the treatment regimen as tolerated every 3-7 days until patient obtains optimal therapeutic benefit. The maximal dosage should not exceed 100 mg/day.

Parkinson's disease: The basic principle of bromocriptine mesilate therapy is to initiate treatment at a low dosage. The initial dose of Bromocriptine mesilate is 0.5 of a 2.5 mg tablet twice daily with meals. If necessary,the dosage may be increased every 14-28 days by 2.5 mg/day with meals.The safety of bromocriptine mesilate has not been demonstrated in dosages exceeding 100 mg/day.
