Changes in Pituitary Hormones Serum Levels in Bromocryptine-Treated Parkinsonian Patients
1977
In the course of a clinical trial with 2α-bromoergocryptine in Parkinson’s disease, the serum levels of several pituitary hormones have been studied in the assumption that the drug active on nigro-striatal dopaminergic system might also interfere with hypothalamus-protuberantial neurotransmission, and have effects on the function of the pituitary.
