If that is what the doctor advised that is best, you should stick with it. For those new with it, take a look at the side effects of bromocriptine:
High blood pressure (hypertension) or low blood pressure (hypotension)
Hallucinations or worsening of psychotic disorders
Seizures
Strokes
A constant headache or vision changes (which may be the first indication of a stroke or other problems)
Heart attacks
Difficulty breathing
Depression
Stomach ulcers or bleeding in the digestive tract
Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)
Signs of an allergic reaction, such as:

An unexplained rash
Hives
Itching
Swelling of the mouth or throat
Wheezing
Difficulty breathing.

Some people have tried Parlodel but it has too many side effects and some of the people I know have tried Dostinex. If you are going to consider it, take note of the possible side effects:
Constipation; dizziness; headache; indigestion; nausea; tiredness or weakness; vomiting. Severe allergic reactions
