Bromocriptine for the treatment of peripartum cardiomyopathy: a multicentre randomized study
Aims An anti-angiogenic cleaved prolactin fragment is considered causal for peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM). Experimental and first clinical observations suggested beneficial effects of the prolactin release inhibitor bromocriptine in PPCM.

Effects of Bromocriptine on Glucose and Insulin Dynamics in Normal and Insulin Dysregulated Horses
The objectives of the study were to study the effects of the synthetic ergot alkaloid (EA), bromocriptine, on glucose and lipid metabolism in insulin dysregulated (ID, n = 7) and non-ID (n = 8) mares. Horses were individually housed and fed timothy grass

Dual pancreatic adrenergic and dopaminergic signaling as a therapeutic target of bromocriptine
Summary: Bromocriptine is approved as a diabetes therapy, yet its therapeutic mechanisms remain unclear. Though bromocriptine’s actions have been mainly attributed to the stimulation of brain dopamine D2 receptors (D2R), bromocriptine also targets the ...

Bromocriptine-associated ototoxicity [PDF]
AbstractThree patients treated with bromocriptine for chronic hepatic encephalopathy showed audiometric evidence of bilateral sensori-neural hearing-loss. Audiometrically, the hearing improved in all three patients when the bromocriptine dosage was reduced, thus suggesting that this drug may produce a reversible ototoxicity.
