For the overproduction of prolactin in my body this drug was amazing and after a couple of months my levels were practically normal. However, it caused my heartrate to speed up randomly and now I'm at the point where the cure is worse than the ailment, and before this, I was pretty healthy without any medical allergies or anything. Please be careful taking this.

I have only been on Dostinex for 2 months but have already seen a drastic increase-my prolactin level went from 150 to 42.2 in 8 weeks! I am hoping my numbers continue to get lower so I will eventually ovulate. Anyone else have pregnancy problems related and this drug helped you? Just curious....

Comment:
My lab values decreased from 860 to 15 in just a few months--I felt better than I had felt in years. Now, I am having a difficult time finding it. I've tried the generic form as well as Parlodel, but they are not nearly as effective. 'Any news someone can give me regarding why it is so hard to get?
