1. What Cabergolina ratiopharm is and what it is used for
Cabergolina ratiopharm belongs to a group of medicines called prolactin inhibitors. Cabergolina ratiopharm prevents lactation (milk production) by reducing levels of a hormone called prolactin.
Cabergolina ratiopharm can also be used to reduce abnormally high levels of the hormone prolactin in the blood.

2. What you should know before taking Cabergoline ratiopharm

Do not take Cabergoline ratiopharm:

  • if you are allergic to cabergoline or to other ergot alkaloids (e.g. bromocriptine), or to any of the excipients of this medicine (listed in section 6)
  • if you currently suffer from (or have previously suffered from) psychosis or are at risk of developing postpartum psychosis
  • if you have previously been diagnosed with fibrotic reactions affecting the lungs, the back of the abdomen, kidneys, or heart
  • if you require long-term treatment with Cabergoline ratiopharm and currently suffer or have previously suffered from fibrotic reactions (scar tissue) affecting the heart.

Warnings and precautions
If you suffer from any of the following health conditions, inform your doctor before taking Cabergoline ratiopharm, as this medicine may not be suitable for you.

  • Cardiovascular diseases
  • Gastric ulcer or gastrointestinal bleeding (this condition may cause black stools or vomiting blood)
  • History of severe mental illness, particularly psychotic disorders
  • Impaired liver or kidney function
  • Raynaud’s disease (when exposed to cold, fingers and toes become bluish, weak, poorly circulated, cold, numb, and tingling)
  • Low blood pressure
  • Swelling of the hands and feet with high blood pressure (preeclampsia, eclampsia)
  • High blood pressure after childbirth
  • Severe chest disorders (e.g. chest pain on breathing, presence of fluid in the lungs, lung inflammation or infection)
  • Fibrotic reactions (scar tissue) affecting the heart, lungs, or abdomen. If long-term treatment with Cabergoline ratiopharm is required, your doctor will first check that your heart, lungs, and kidneys are in good condition. An echocardiogram (an ultrasound test of the heart) will be performed before starting treatment and at regular intervals during treatment. If fibrotic reactions occur, treatment must be discontinued.
  • If you are being treated with Cabergoline ratiopharm for a certain type of brain tumour (prolactin-secreting adenoma), it is possible that cerebrospinal fluid leakage from the nose may occur. If this happens, contact your doctor immediately, who will decide whether you should continue or discontinue treatment.

Inform your doctor if you, or someone in your family or caregiver, notice the development of impulses or urges to behave in ways that are unusual for you and that you cannot resist the impulse or temptation to carry out certain activities that could harm yourself or others. These are called impulse control disorders and may include behaviours such as gambling addiction, compulsive eating or excessive spending, abnormally increased sexual desire, or increased sexual thoughts or feelings. Your doctor may consider it necessary to adjust or discontinue the dose.
The effect of alcohol on the tolerability of cabergoline is unknown.
Infertility is reversible in women taking Cabergoline ratiopharm, so pregnancy may occur even before menstrual cycles have become regular. Therefore, a pregnancy test is recommended at least every 4 weeks until menstruation resumes, and thereafter whenever a menstrual period is more than 3 days late.
During treatment with Cabergoline ratiopharm, appropriate contraceptive methods must be used, even after stopping treatment, until anovulatory cycles are restored. (See section "Pregnancy and breastfeeding")
Children and adolescents
The safety and efficacy of Cabergoline ratiopharm in children and adolescents under 16 years of age have not been established.
Other medicines and Cabergoline ratiopharm
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.
Some medicines used to lower blood pressure and certain drugs (e.g. phenothiazines, butyrophenones, thioxanthenes) used to treat psychiatric disorders (schizophrenia or psychosis), if taken concomitantly with Cabergoline ratiopharm, may interfere with the effects of cabergoline. Your treating physician must therefore be aware of the concomitant use of such drugs.
Other medicines, such as other ergot alkaloids (e.g. pergolide, bromocriptine, lisuride, ergotamine, dihydroergotamine, ergometrine or methysergide), anti-nausea drugs (metoclopramide), and macrolide antibiotics (such as erythromycin) may affect the activity and tolerability of Cabergoline ratiopharm.
Cabergoline ratiopharm with food and drink
Cabergoline ratiopharm should be taken orally, preferably with food, to reduce undesirable effects.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you are pregnant, suspect you may be pregnant, are planning a pregnancy, or are breastfeeding, consult your doctor before taking this medicine.
If you become pregnant during treatment with Cabergoline ratiopharm, contact your doctor as soon as possible. Before starting cabergoline treatment, ensure you are not pregnant. Furthermore, avoid pregnancy for at least one month after stopping cabergoline treatment.
Since Cabergoline ratiopharm will stop your milk production, you must not take Cabergoline ratiopharm if you wish to breastfeed your baby. If you need to take Cabergoline ratiopharm, you must use an alternative method to feed your baby.
Driving and using machines
Cabergoline ratiopharm may negatively affect reaction ability in some individuals, and this should be considered in activities requiring high alertness, such as driving vehicles or performing precision work. Be cautious when performing tasks requiring rapid and accurate responses during treatment.
Cabergoline ratiopharm may cause drowsiness (extreme lethargy) and sudden sleep attacks. Patients experiencing these symptoms should not drive or engage in activities that, due to reduced alertness, could result in serious harm (e.g. operating machinery), until these episodes and drowsiness have resolved.
Cabergoline ratiopharm contains lactose
If your doctor has diagnosed you with an intolerance to certain sugars, contact them before taking this medicine.

3. HOW TO TAKE CABERGOLINE RATIOPHARM

Always take this medicine exactly as instructed by your doctor.
If you have any doubts, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
The dose will be determined by your doctor, who will adjust it individually according to your needs.
The tablets should be taken with food to reduce certain side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain.

  • To stop milk production: The recommended dose is 1 mg (as a single dose) within 24 hours after childbirth.
  • To reduce prolactin levels in the body: Treatment usually starts with 0.5 mg per week, but higher doses may be required. Your doctor will inform you how long you need to take the tablets.

The tablet may be divided into equal parts.
If you take more Cabergoline ratiopharm than you should
It is important not to take too many tablets. If you have taken too many tablets or if you suspect that a child has ingested some, contact the emergency department of the nearest hospital or a doctor immediately. Symptoms of overdose include nausea, vomiting, low blood pressure, stomach pain, behavioural changes, confusion, or hallucinations (seeing things that are not real). Take this leaflet and any remaining tablets with you to show the doctor.
If you forget to take Cabergoline ratiopharm
If you forget to take a dose at the usual time, take it as soon as you remember.
If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and take the next one at the regular time.
If you stop taking Cabergoline ratiopharm
If you stop taking cabergoline, symptoms of your condition may worsen; therefore, you should discuss with your doctor before stopping treatment. It takes several days for cabergoline to be cleared from the bloodstream, and effects may worsen over a period of 2 weeks, increasing lactation.
If you have any questions about the use of this medicine, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

Cabergoline ratiopharm belongs to a group of medicines called dopamine agonists. Cabergoline ratiopharm works in a way similar to a chemical substance naturally present in the nervous system, called dopamine. Patients with Parkinson's disease do not have sufficient levels of this important chemical.
Cabergoline ratiopharm 1 mg and 2 mg tablets are used to treat Parkinson's disease. It can be used alone or in combination with levodopa plus decarboxylase inhibitors, as a second-line therapy following treatment with non-ergot derived agents.
Treatment must be supervised by a specialist physician.

  • if you have previously been diagnosed with conditions known as fibrotic reactions affecting the lungs, the back of the abdomen, kidneys, or heart
  • if you are to be treated with Cabergoline ratiopharm for a long period and you currently have or have previously had fibrotic reactions (scar tissue) affecting the heart.

Warnings and precautions
