i was prescribed with Bromocriptine, but i'am confused beacuse i see there are two types: the capsules which are 5mg and the tablets 2.5 mg. my doctor prescribed me to take 1/2 tablet each night, but he means half of the 2.5 mg or the 5 mg one. Iam confused because maybe I think that he menat half of the capsule (5mg) which is the 2.5 tablet. Iam currently taking half of the 2.5 mg, is this right or I should take the 2.5 entirely, which is the half of the 5 mg? HELP PLEASEEE!!!! ## If I were in your shoes, the best thing to do is exactly what you are already doing, taking half of the 2.5 mg tablet; as your doctor prescribed. Better safe to under-dose than overdose. I can understand how it would be confusing and awkward to take half of a tablet. I would get ahold of your doctor to cl...

I was on Victoza and was losing weight and my sugar count was way down. Then I started having stomach pain and backaches, so my doctor took me off of it and put me on Cycloset. Even though I do feel better I'm starting to eat like I was before and am also gaining some weight back. Is this normal? I need to lose weight badly. I've been on it for one week. Thanks. ## Cycloset contains the active ingredient Bromocriptine and it has not been shown to cause significant weight gain. How have your blood sugar levels been? This could be just a reaction to their fluctuating from switching medications. If they are higher, because of a rebound effect, while your body gets used to the new medication, then that could be causing more hunger, so you eat more and will gain some weight. However,...
