From Lyle's Bromocriptine Special Report:
"{Maximum dose used for human studies for fatloss or diabetes treatment is 4.8mg/day.
In obese or diabetic individuals, it only appears important to stimulate the DA receptors during the day as there is sufficient DA receptor stimulation later in the day already.
Finally there is no physiological reason to believe that multiple daily dosing ( 2.5mg morning and 2.5mg night ) will have any additional benefits described in this book, Overall this telle me that the choice of form, Slow release or Fast Acting, should be irrelevant.
As long as a sufficient dose ( 5mg/day for most, 2.5mg/day for hyper responders ) is taken in the morning,the beneficial effects should occur.'}
