Cabernorm 0.5 mg Tablet

Cabernorm 0.5 mg Tablet is an oral cabergoline medicine, with each tablet containing 0.5 mg of cabergoline. It belongs to the dopamine agonist class and is used for infertility-related hormone problems, especially when high prolactin levels interfere with ovulation or fertility. Cabernorm 0.5 mg Tablet helps lower excess prolactin so normal reproductive function can resume when appropriate. This product is a prescription medicine and should be used only under a doctor’s supervision.

How it works: Cabergoline works by activating dopamine receptors in the brain, which tells the pituitary gland to make less prolactin. As a tablet, Cabernorm 0.5 mg Tablet is swallowed and absorbed through the digestive system to help lower prolactin levels over time.

Cabernorm 0.5 mg Tablet is a higher-strength tablet, so it is generally chosen for patients who need a larger cabergoline dose than lower-strength tablets would provide. Because each tablet already contains 0.5 mg, a doctor may use it when a simpler or less frequent dosing plan is needed, but the exact schedule still depends on the patient’s condition and response. It is not a starting dose for everyone, and some patients may need a lower or split dose first.

• Hyperprolactinemia
• Infertility linked to high prolactin
• Menstrual irregularities caused by excess prolactin
• Ovulation problems related to prolactin imbalance
• Pituitary-related prolactin control

• Swallow Cabernorm 0.5 mg Tablet whole with water unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Take it exactly on the days and at the times prescribed; dosing is often not daily.
• Taking the tablet with food may help reduce nausea or stomach upset.
• Stand up slowly after taking it, especially if you feel dizzy or lightheaded.
• If your doctor prescribes a lower dose, the tablet may need to be split only if they specifically instruct you to do so.
• Do not take extra tablets to make up for a missed dose unless your prescriber tells you to.

Each Cabernorm 0.5 mg Tablet provides 0.5 mg of cabergoline per tablet. The dose may be taken once or twice weekly, or on another schedule your doctor chooses based on prolactin levels and how you tolerate the medicine; there is no one-size-fits-all daily dose. The maximum amount per day is determined by the prescriber, and you should not exceed the dose directed by your doctor.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
