No hyptotensive effect, taken twice per week to once daily (~72hr half-life, so steadier plasma level) D2 receptor selective (bromocriptine is a D1 antagonist, 5ht1a agonist, and has adrenergic properties that cause the aforementioned hypotensive effect). No constantly stuffy nose. Basically, The difference is one of [neuro]pharmacological profile and side effects.

Cabergoline also suppresss prolactin more completely, IIRC.
