Cabliz 0.5 Tablet

Cabliz 0.5 Tablet is a prescription tablet that contains cabergoline 0.5 mg in each tablet. Cabergoline belongs to the dopamine agonist class and is used to help treat hyperprolactinemia, a condition where prolactin is too high and can affect fertility, menstrual cycles, ovulation, and sexual function. Cabliz 0.5 Tablet is taken by mouth and is used only when a clinician has decided that cabergoline is appropriate. Because it is a 0.5 mg strength, it is a higher-strength tablet than the smaller cabergoline tablets often used when starting treatment, so dosing must be individualized.

How it works: Cabergoline works by stimulating dopamine receptors in the brain, which lowers the release of prolactin from the pituitary gland. As a tablet, Cabliz 0.5 Tablet is swallowed and absorbed to help bring prolactin levels down over time.

Cabliz 0.5 Tablet provides 0.5 mg of cabergoline in one tablet, which makes it a useful strength when a doctor wants a specific tablet amount rather than having to split or combine smaller tablets. This strength is often chosen for patients who have already been assessed and need a tailored cabergoline dose for prolactin-related fertility or hormone treatment.

Each Cabliz 0.5 Tablet contains cabergoline 0.5 mg. The dose is not one-size-fits-all; some patients take it once or twice weekly, while others need a different schedule based on prolactin levels and response. Your doctor decides the exact dose and maximum amount for you, and you should not exceed the prescribed number of tablets in a week or day.

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