Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have ever had high blood pressure after birth, or had heart disease. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding.

[UNSAFE] Cabergoline may decrease alertness, affect your vision or make you feel sleepy and dizzy. Do not drive if these symptoms occur. Cabergoline is used to treat conditions such as infertility or abnormal production of breast milk (galactorrhoea) caused due to excess production of a natural hormone called prolactin. To lower the chance of feeling dizzy or passing out, rise slowly if you have been sitting or lying down. Do not take Cabergoline if you are breastfeeding. Take it with or after food to avoid side effects such as nausea or indigestion. Be cautious while driving or doing anything that requires concentration as Cabergoline can cause dizziness and sleepiness. Regular monitoring of blood pressure may be advised during treatment with Cabergoline.
