Bromocriptine decreases prolactin secretion, aiding in the reduction of tumor size and restoring normal hormone levels in patients with prolactinomas.
Bromocriptine, a dopamine agonist, reduces prolactin secretion by stimulating dopamine receptors in the pituitary. This helps shrink prolactinomas and correct related hormonal imbalances.
