Norprolac Starter Pack Description

If you have been found to have a high blood level of the hormone prolactin, your doctor will want to conduct testing to determine if this is a result of a growth or tumor on your pituitary gland called a prolactinoma. Should testing prove to be positive, you may receive an Rx for Norprolac Starter Pack. Surgery is another option, but depending on the size of the tumor and whether or not it is a non-secretory tumor, your doctor will have to decide if more than medical therapy is required.

How Norprolac Starter Pack Works

Dopamine, a brain chemical, plays a predominant role in regulating the secretion of prolactin from your pituitary gland. Your pituitary gland influences almost every part of your body in some way or another, including growth, reproduction, and regulating your blood pressure. A prolactinoma is the most common cause of high prolactin levels. The tumors are usually non-cancerous and tend to affect women more than men. As a dopamine agonist, Norprolac Starter Pack will work to bind to dopamine receptors, resulting in a decrease in the production of prolactin.

Your treatment will begin with a Norprolac Starter Pack that consists of 3 light pink 25 microgram tablets and 3 light blue 50 microgram tablets. You will take 1 25 mcg tab once a day for 3 days, then the 50mcg tabs once daily for the next 3 days. Then your doctor may increase the dosage once your body is accustomed to Quinagolide Hydrochloride, the active ingredient on Norprolac Starter Pack, and you are less likely to experience as many side effects.

Reasons Why You May Have Increased Prolactin Levels

Pregnancy, breast feeding, increased exercise, hyperthyroidism, and even certain medications could be the reason for high levels of prolactin. Symptoms in women can include vaginal dryness, irregular or no periods, and milk production when you are not pregnant or nursing. For men, you may experience erectile dysfunction, an enlargement of your breasts, and reduced muscle mass and body hair. Both sexes may have problems with fertility, bone loss, and a low libido.

Before Norprolac Starter Pack is Prescribed

Ask your doctor about any risks to taking Norprolac Starter Pack if you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or are breast feeding. Discuss other medical conditions or allergies with your doctor and list any current OTC or Rx drugs you take, including herbal remedies and dietary or vitamin supplements so it can be determined if Norprolac Starter Pack is safe for you to take.
