How does it work?

Cabergoline is used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease.

Dopamine is a chemical substance in the brain and is known to be absent or reduced in Parkinson's disease. It binds to particular receptor sites in the brain in order to perform its normal activities.

Cabergoline is able to bind to the dopamine receptor sites and so acts as a substitute in the absence of dopamine. It is therefore able to reduce the symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

Cabergoline is often used in conjunction with levodopa and is suitable for individuals who can no longer tolerate levodopa or are not responding well to it.
