Cabergoline by SP Laboratory works by directly stimulating D2-dopamine receptors on lactotroph cells in the pituitary gland. In bodybuilding, it is used to reduce prolactin levels and minimize the unwanted side effects of anabolic supplements. By taking Cabergoline, athletes can decrease the adverse reactions associated with anabolic steroid use, including gynecomastia, water retention, and high prolactin levels. Additionally, it improves sex drive, erection, and recovery time.
Cabergoline suppresses prolactin secretion, increases libido and erection, significantly reduces the recovery time between sexual intercourse, and lowers blood pressure. Cabergoline is a derivative of ergot alkaloids and functions as an agonist of dopamine (D2) receptors. It is a modern and safer analogue of bromocriptine.
The drug effectively manages the main side effects of steroids such as Deca (Deca-dik) and Trenbolone. Lowering prolactin concentration leads to a decrease in fluid retention in the tissues, resulting in an increase in lean muscle mass.

The use of Сabergoline in bodybuilding
Based on the experience gained from Iron Factor and Do4a.com, the most effective way of using cabergoline to lower prolactin is as follows: while taking progestin anabolic steroids (like nandrolone or trenbolone), take 0.25 mg of cabergoline (one whole or half tablet) every 7-21 days. It is recommended to start taking cabergoline from the third or fourth week of the course of anabolic steroids when the ACC concentration approaches its maximum. However, the optimal dose and frequency of administration should be decided based on the prolactin level analysis because the effect of the drug varies depending on the individual characteristics of the organism.
If the level of prolactin increases beyond the permissible limit, the frequency of administration should be increased to 0.25 mg every 4 days. It is advisable to conduct a control analysis of prolactin after two doses, followed by a correction of the scheme.
Cabergoline can be taken with or without food.
