1 PARLODEL ® (BROMOCRIPTINE MESYLATE) NAME OF THE MEDICINE Active ingredient: Bromocriptine mesylate Chemical names: Ergotaman-3’,6’,18-trione, 2-bromo-12’-hydroxy-2’-(1-methylethyl)-5’- (2-methylpropyl)-, (5’α)-; 2-Bromoergocryptine monomethanesulphonate; 2-bromo- - ergocryptine mesylate; CAS Number: 22260-51-1 Chemical structure: H CH 3 H H HN N Br O O N OH H CH 2 CH(CH 3 ) 2 O N H N C O CH(CH 3 ) 2 Chemical Formula: C 32 H 40 BrN 5 O 5 CH 4 O 3 S Molecular weight: 750.7 (mesylate salt); 654.5 (free base) DESCRIPTION Bromocriptine mesylate is a peptide ergot alkaloid, poorly soluble in water (<0.1% at 20 - 25 0 C). Freely soluble in methanol. Solubility in ethanol (70% v/v) is 75%. Parlodel tablets and capsules contain bromocriptine mesylate. EXCIPIENTS Tablets: magnesium stearate, silica colloidal anhydrous, maize starch, disodium edetate, maleic acid, and lactose. Capsules: magnesium stearate, silica colloidal anhydrous, maize starch, maleic acid, lactose, gelatin, and titanium dioxide. The 5 mg capsules also contain shellac, red iron oxide CI77491, and indigo carmine CI73015. 2 PHARMACOLOGY Parlodel has a pharmacological spectrum unlike that of most classical ergot compounds, having no uterotonic and little vasoconstrictor activity. Its principal effects derive from dopaminergic receptor stimulant activity. It inhibits prolactin secretion and the effect can be demonstrated after single or repeated oral administration of the drug. Moreover, the effect is relatively specific in that doses necessary to produce inhibition of prolactin secretion do not interfere with release of gonadotrophins or thyrotrophin. However, Parlodel elevates growth hormone for a few hours after each dose in normal or diabetic persons. This may not be reflected by an elevation of basal levels during chronic administration. However, it may suppress the elevated growth hormone levels of acromegalic patients. Parlodel has been shown to arrest the growth or to reduce the size of prolactin-secreting pituitary adenomas (prol اقرأ الوثيقة كاملة
