This can lead to symptoms such as irregular menstrual cycles, infertility, and galactorrhea in women, and in men, it may cause erectile dysfunction and low testosterone levels. Cabergoline helps to normalize prolactin levels, addressing these symptoms. Additionally, it may be used for other conditions where reducing prolactin secretion is beneficial.

Pregnant or breastfeeding women should discuss the use of Cabergoline with their doctor to ensure safety. Always store the medication as directed to maintain its efficacy.

What does Cabergoline interact with?
