Polodyl 2.5 Mg Tablet

What is Polodyl 2.5 mg

Polodyl 2.5 mg is primarily used for Prolactin reduction and managing conditions associated with hormonal imbalances. It contains the active salt Bromocriptine, which belongs to the class of Dopamine agonists and Prolactin inhibitors. This medication helps in treating conditions like Hyperprolactinemia, menstrual irregularities, and female infertility.

Chandra Bhagat Pharma Pvt Ltd manufactures Polodyl. The salts in these medications are FDA-approved, GMP-compliant, and WHO-approved, ensuring trustworthiness and safety.

Polodyl mimics the action of Dopamine in the brain, helping reduce Prolactin levels. This mechanism is crucial for managing conditions like Hyperprolactinemia, which can cause symptoms such as Galactorrhea (spontaneous milk production) and infertility.

What are the benefits of taking Polodyl 2.5 mg

The main Polodyl 2.5 uses include:

• Prolactin reduction: Helps manage conditions caused by high Prolactin levels
• Hormonal imbalance treatment: Assists in regulating hormonal imbalances
• Menstrual irregularity management: Supports regular menstrual cycles

These Polodyl benefits are achieved through Bromocriptine, which effectively reduces Prolactin levels, thereby alleviating symptoms associated with hormonal imbalances.

Safety Advice

Liver disease

Individuals with liver issues should consult their doctor before starting Polodyl 2.5 mg, as it may require dose adjustments. The liver plays a vital part in metabolizing Bromocriptine, and liver disease may affect how the body processes this medication.

Kidney impairment

Those with kidney impairment should also consult their healthcare provider for personalized advice. Although only a tiny portion of Bromocriptine is excreted by the kidneys, discussing potential dose adjustments and monitoring kidney function regularly is crucial to ensure safe use. 

Pregnant and breastfeeding women

Always consult a doctor before starting a new medication during pregnancy or nursing to ensure the safety of both mother and baby. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should specifically discuss the use of Polodyl 2.5 mg as Bromocriptine may affect lactation and could pose risks to the baby.

Avoid

Avoid if you are allergic to Bromocriptine or similar medications. If dizziness occurs, avoid driving or operating machinery. Limit alcohol consumption to avoid increased dizziness. Inform your doctor about all medications you are taking to avoid interactions.
