BROMOCRIPTINE
Bromocriptine is used to treat amenorrhea, a condition in which the menstrual period does not occur; infertility (inability to get pregnant) in women; abnormal discharge of milk from the breast; hypogonadism; Parkinson's disease; and acromegaly, a condition in which too much growth hormone is in the body. This medication is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
Bromocriptine comes as a capsule and tablet to take by mouth. It usually is taken once or twice a day. It also may be taken several times a day to treat certain conditions. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take Bromocriptine exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor. Do not stop taking Bromocriptine suddenly without talking with your doctor. It could make your condition worse. If you are taking Bromocriptine for amenorrhea, it usually takes 6-8 weeks for a menstrual period to occur. If you are taking Bromocriptine to become pregnant, use a method of birth control other than oral contraceptives (birth control pills) until you have regular menstrual periods; then stop using birth control. If your menstrual period is 3 days late, call your doctor for a pregnancy test. Women who become pregnant while taking this medication should stop taking it and call their doctors immediately. If you do not wish to become pregnant, use a method of birth control other than oral contraceptives while taking Bromocriptine. Bromocriptine is also used to treat certain tumors in men and women, a condition called neuroleptic malignant syndrome; cocaine addiction; and a painful breast condition. Talk with your doctor about the possible risks of using this drug for your condition.  Keep all appointments with your doctor and the laboratory. Your doctor will order certain lab tests to check your response to Bromocriptine. Do not let anyone else take your medication. Ask your pharmacist any questions you have about refilling your prescription. |

If you take Bromocriptine several times a day, take the missed dose as soon as you remember it and take any remaining doses for that day at evenly spaced intervals. However, if you remember a missed dose when it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you take Bromocriptine once a day at bedtime and do not remember it until the next morning, skip the missed dose. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.

Tell your doctor if you have or have ever had kidney or liver disease, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding. If you become pregnant while taking Bromocriptine, call your doctor. You should not take Bromocriptine while breast-feeding. Keep Bromocriptine in the container it came in, tightly closed, and out of reach of children. Store it at room temperature and away from excess heat and moisture (not in the bathroom). Throw away any medication that is outdated or no longer needed. Talk to your pharmacist about the proper disposal of your medication. The risk of using Bromocriptine in combination with other drugs has not been systematically evaluated, but alcohol may potentiate the side effects of Bromocriptine. Bromocriptine may interact with dopamine antagonists, butyrophenones, and certain other agents. Compounds in these categories result in a decreased efficacy of Bromocriptine: phenothiazines, haloperidol, metoclopramide, pimozide. Concomitant use of Bromocriptine with other ergot alkaloids is not recommended.
