    I take this medication because I have no choice. I fell tired all the time. There is some days that I just feel like lying down. I don't have the energy to do anything. I have headaches at less 3 days a week.I experience tenderness on my breast. I gained weight since I'm taking this drug and I take only .25mg.

    High levels of prolactin had killed my sex drive and started effecting everything else. Needless to say my hormones were out of wack. My doctor prescribed Dostinex and what a change. My sex drive is back and my hormones are in balance. It's worked for me and I recommend you ask your doctor about it.
