Treatment of hyperprolactinemia (high levels of prolactin in the blood)

Management of Parkinson's disease

Treatment of acromegaly (a condition where the pituitary gland produces too much growth hormone)

Cabliz 0.5mg Tab (Cabergoline) is a dopamine agonist, meaning it mimics the effects of dopamine in the brain. It works by stimulating dopamine receptors in the pituitary gland, which helps regulate the production of prolactin. This can lower prolactin levels, treat Parkinson's symptoms, and reduce growth hormone production in acromegaly.

Store cabergoline at room temperature, away from light and moisture. Keep it out of reach of children and pets.

Dosage is determined by your doctor and depends on your condition and individual needs.
