Dosage and how to use DOSTIHEAL / CABERGOLINA
Treatment of hyperprolactinemia disorders
Use cabergoline to treat dysfunctions associated with hyperprolactinemia, such as amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, ovulation issues, and galactorrhea. Additionally, doctors prescribe cabergoline for patients with prolactin-secreting pituitary adenomas (both microscopic and macroscopic), idiopathic hyperprolactinemia, or semiempty sella syndrome with hyperprolactinemia. These conditions contribute to the clinical manifestations mentioned above.
Furthermore, when administered chronically, cabergoline at a dose of 1 to 2 mg weekly is effective in normalizing serum prolactin concentrations in approximately 84% of hyperprolactinemic patients.
Moreover, regular menstrual cycles resumed in 83% of women who had previously lost their menstrual cycles. Restoration of ovulation was noted in 89% of women whose progesterone levels were monitored during the luteal phase.
Finally, galactorrhea disappears in 90% of cases with treatment. Additionally, tumor size reduction is achieved in 50–90% of both female and male patients with microscopic or macroscopic disease.
Dostiheal 0.5 lactation medicine cuts milk production and weaning
Inhibits/suppresses physiological lactation
Dostiheal 0.5 is indicated for the suppression of physiological lactation immediately after birth and for the suppression of established lactation:
After giving birth, when the pregnant mother does not breastfeed the baby or is contraindicated to breastfeed due to medical reasons related to the mother or the person who has just given birth.
After stillbirth or abortion.
Cabergoline prevents/inhibits physiological lactation by inhibiting prolactin secretion.
In controlled clinical trials, cabergoline administered as a single 1 mg dose on the first day of life:
- Effectively inhibits lactation
- Breast tenderness and pain in 70 – 90% of women.
- Less than 5% of women have breast symptoms that recover in the third week after giving birth (usually mild).
Inhibition of lactation, reduction of breast engorgement and pain: achieved in approximately 85% of lactating women treated with a total dose of 1 mg cabergoline divided into 4 doses over 2 days. Recurrence of breast symptoms after day 10 is uncommon (about 2% of cases).
