***CAN WE MAKE THIS A STICKY???***
---Dostinex: The Facts of the Matter---
8 tabs @ 1mg each=$130 (This is name-brand, not generic)
.5mg every 4th day=16 doses
16 doses x 1 e4d=64 days, or over 2 months. (16 weeks)
$130/16=$8.13 per week-----------THAT IS NOT EXPENSIVE!!!! Plus, for the SAME PRICE, you can get generic dostinex, but instead of 8 pills, you get 20!!!! Thats over 5 months worth!!! I assume youre taking deca or tren if you need dostinex... Cmon bros, I know you're going to be spending a good bit of cash on whatever cycle youre gonna be doing if you need dostinex, DONT SKIMP ON ANCILLARIES!!!!! DOSTINEX IS DIRT CHEAP!!!!
For example, Nolva 20mg tabs come in blisters of 10, for somewhere around 15 bucks. Thats like $1.50 per pill. A maintenance dose of Nolva during a cycle is around 20mg every day, so about $1.50 a day. if you do with GENERIC dostinex, its MUCH MUCH cheaper than that. It just seems expensive because youre buying a few months worth at one time!!
PS-As an added bonus, NO drug makes sex as good as Cabaser (dostinex) IMO, the shit is GREAT!!!
PS-Mavy, you gonna help me out on this one? I think we should make this a sticky called "Dostinex-THE SHIT IS NOT EXPENSIVE!!!!"

Cabergoline (Dostinex)
Author: Donna Karasic, PharmD Last modified: March 31, 2002
INDICATIONS
* Hyperprolactinemia disorders- either idiopathic or because of pituitary adenomas; includes acromegaly, amenorrhea, prolactinomas, galactorrhea
* Parkinson's Disease (non-FDA approved use)
* Puerperal lactation inhibition (non-FDA approved use)
* Normalization of Androgen Levels (non-FDA approved use)
* Improve menstrual cyclicity in polycystic ovary syndrome (non-FDA approved use)
DOSAGE
* Hyperprolactinemia:0.25mg twice a week, increase by 0.25mg twice a week, at 4 week intervals, according to response. Max dose is 1 mg twice weekly.
* Parkinson's Disease:0.5-1mg daily in the AM. Upward titration should be at weekly or longer intervals in 0.5 mg increments. Max dose is 10mg daily.
* Puerperal Lactation Inhibition: 1 mg as a single oral dose (given within 24 to 27 hours of delivery)
* Improve Menstrual Cyclicity in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: 0.5mg/week
PHARMACOKINETICS
* Absorption: not affected by food; may be taken without regard to food
* Moderately bound to protein (40-42%)
* Extensively metabolized by the liver. Cytochrome P450 metabolism appears to be minimal; small amounts are excreted unchanged in urine
* Elimination Half Life- 63-69 hours; slow elimination from pituitary may account for long duration of action
ADVERSE EFFECTS
* Dizziness (17%)
* Headache (26%)
* Weakness / fatigue (1-5%)
* Abdominal pain (5%)
* Orthostatic hypotension (4%)
* Epistaxis (1%)
* Sensation of suffocation
* Nausea (appears to be dose related) (29%)
* Adverse effects of Cabergoline may be less frequent than with Bromocriptine.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
* Hypersensitivity to ergot alkaloids
* Uncontrolled hypertension
DRUG INTERACTIONS
* Antihypertensives
* Dopamine Antagonists (eg phenothiazines, butyrophenones, thioxanthenes or metoclopramide)
