What is the use of Parlodel?

What is bromocriptine (Parlodel)?
This medication guide provides information about the Parlodel brand of bromocriptine. Cycloset is another brand of bromocriptine that is not covered in this medication guide.

The Parlodel brand of bromocriptine is used to treat certain conditions caused by a hormone imbalance in which there is too much prolactin in the blood (hyperprolactinemia). High prolactin levels may cause sexual problems, hot flashes, menstrual problems or infertility in women, muscle loss in men, breast enlargement in men and women, and lack of sexual development in adolescents. Parlodel is also used to treat these disorders when they are caused by a noncancerous tumor of the pituitary gland that can overproduce prolactin.

Parlodel is sometimes used together with surgery or radiation in treating acromegaly, a condition caused by a pituitary gland tumor that produces too much growth hormone.

Parlodel is also used to treat symptoms of Parkinson's disease, such as stiffness, tremors, muscle spasms, and poor muscle control.

Bromocriptine may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
