Treatment with CB 154 (Sandoz), 2 Br-alpha-ergocryptin in a dose of 2.5 mg three times a day from the 27th week of pregnancy, resulted in prompt improvement with a corresponding decrease in the plasma prolactin, return of the breast temperature to normal, and disappearance of the EEG-abnormalities. After parturition and subsequent mammoplasty the woman soon became pregant again. During this pregnancy, which terminated in the birth of a normal child, treatment with CB 154 was started early and continued throughout pregnancy with success and without side effects. | lld:pubmed |
