Cabliz 0.25 mg Tablet

Cabliz 0.25 mg Tablet is a prescription medicine that contains 0.25 mg of cabergoline in each tablet. Cabergoline is a dopamine agonist used to help lower high prolactin levels, which can interfere with ovulation, menstrual regularity, fertility, and certain hormone-related symptoms. This Cabliz 0.25 mg Tablet is used when a doctor decides cabergoline is appropriate for prolactin-related infertility or other prolactin excess conditions. It is a small oral tablet made by Macleods Pharmaceuticals, India.

How it works: Cabergoline works by turning down the release of prolactin from the pituitary gland. In tablet form, Cabliz 0.25 mg Tablet is swallowed and absorbed through the digestive tract, then helps reduce prolactin levels over time.

Each Cabliz 0.25 mg Tablet provides 0.25 mg of cabergoline, which is a standard low tablet strength used for carefully adjusted dosing. Because cabergoline is often started low and titrated, this strength is useful when a doctor wants a dose that can be scheduled precisely or split across the week. It may be chosen for people who need a smaller, more manageable dose rather than a higher-strength tablet.

• High prolactin levels (hyperprolactinemia)
• Prolactin-related infertility
• Menstrual problems caused by elevated prolactin
• Galactorrhea (unwanted breast milk production)
• Symptoms related to prolactin-secreting pituitary tumors, when prescribed

• Swallow the Cabliz 0.25 mg Tablet whole with water, unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Take it exactly on the day(s) and at the time your prescriber recommends; cabergoline is often taken only once or twice weekly, not daily.
• Taking it with food or at bedtime may help reduce nausea or dizziness.
• Stand up slowly after taking it, especially the first few doses, because this tablet can cause lightheadedness.
• Do not crush or chew the tablet unless your doctor or pharmacist specifically says it is okay.
• If you miss a dose, follow your prescriber’s instructions; do not double up unless instructed.

Each Cabliz 0.25 mg Tablet contains 0.25 mg of cabergoline. The number of tablets taken and how often they are taken depend on the reason for treatment, prolactin levels, and how you respond, and many patients take it only once or twice per week. Your doctor determines the exact dose, and the total amount per day should not exceed the amount prescribed for you.

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