Proctinal 1.25 mg Tablet

Proctinal 1.25 mg Tablet contains 1.25 mg of bromocriptine in each tablet. It belongs to the dopamine agonist class and is used in infertility-related care, especially when a doctor needs to lower excess prolactin that can interfere with ovulation and fertility. Proctinal 1.25 mg Tablet is a prescription tablet used under medical supervision, because bromocriptine dosing is individualized and can be adjusted based on response and tolerance.

How it works: Bromocriptine works by acting like dopamine in the brain, which helps reduce the release of prolactin from the pituitary gland. In tablet form, Proctinal 1.25 mg Tablet is swallowed and then absorbed to help correct hormone imbalance that can affect ovulation and fertility.

Proctinal 1.25 mg Tablet is the lower strength option compared with Proctinal 2.5 mg Tablet, so it may be chosen when a doctor wants a gentler starting point or a smaller dose adjustment. This can help reduce side effects such as nausea, dizziness, or low blood pressure while the dose is being tailored to the patient.
