Bromocriptine can be used to manage cluster headaches by inhibiting prolactin secretion, which may alter pain pathways involved in these headaches.
Bromocriptine may be used off-label to treat cluster headaches, leveraging its dopamine agonist properties to influence vascular tone, potentially reducing headache frequency and intensity.
