In reply to Prolactin hormone level and bromocriptine ?, posted by ben on August 14, 2001, at 13:52:36
Hi,
I had prolactinemia from taking Risperdal, but when I added bromocriptine my level went back to normal. I too have heard that prolactinemia can be a marker for depression, but I don't remember where I read it -- do you know? That said, I've improved a great deal with Risperdal, even with the prolactinemia, so that doesn't seem to be true for me.

> What are other symptoms of a hyperprolactinaemia (for men) ? Bromocriptine (Parlodel) is used to tread this as well as cases of depression. Is there any relationship and could it be worthfull to check the blood level of prolactin ?
