Bromocriptine + Metformin

Uses

How Bromocriptine and Metformin Work Bromocriptine and Metformin is a combination of two medications: bromocriptine and metformin. Bromocriptine is a dopamine agonist that lowers elevated dopamine levels, a chemical messenger in the brain. This action reduces glucose production in the liver and lowers blood glucose levels. Metformin is a biguanide that decreases the production and absorption of glucose in the body and enhances the use of existing insulin. Together, they provide improved control of blood sugar.

How it Works

Common side effects of Bromocriptine and Metformin include nausea, loss of appetite, taste changes, diarrhea, dizziness, fatigue, and hypoglycemia (low blood glucose level).
