Parlodel (bromocriptine) inhibits the secretion of the hormone prolactin from the pituitary gland. It also mimics the action of dopamine, a chemical lacking in the brain of someone with Parkinson's disease. Parlodel is prescribed to treat a variety of other medical conditions.

Parlodel prescription

Treating Parkinson disease, certain conditions caused by too much prolactin in the blood (e.g., excessive or abnormal breast milk production), certain menstrual problems, or abnormally large growth of certain body parts (acromegaly). Parlodel may be prescribed for other conditions as determined by your doctor.
Bromocriptine is a dopamine agonist. It works by blocking the release of prolactin from the pituitary gland and lowering growth hormone levels (in patients with acromegaly). In Parkinson disease, bromocriptine works by stimulating dopamine receptors in certain parts of the brain.
