About Criptin-2.5 Tablet 10's

Criptin-2.5 Tablet 10's is a prescription medicine used to treat conditions related to hormone levels and dopamine activity. It may be prescribed to lower high prolactin levels, manage acromegaly, a condition caused by excess growth hormone production, and help relieve symptoms of Parkinson's disease. It works by acting like dopamine, a natural chemical messenger involved in regulating hormone release and movement.

Take Criptin-2.5 Tablet 10's exactly as prescribed, preferably with food to help reduce nausea and stomach discomfort. Try to take it at the same time each day. This medicine may cause dizziness or a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing up (orthostatic hypotension), particularly when starting treatment or after a dose increase. Rise slowly from a sitting or lying position to help reduce these effects.

Common side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, tiredness, or constipation. Contact your doctor promptly if you experience fainting, hallucinations, sudden uncontrollable sleepiness, persistent headache, chest pain, vision changes, or unusual changes in behaviour or urges.

Before taking Criptin-2.5 Tablet 10's, tell your doctor if you have high blood pressure, heart or blood vessel problems, liver disease, a history of mental health conditions, or stomach ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding.

How Criptin-2.5 Tablet 10's Works

Criptin-2.5 Tablet 10's contains bromocriptine, which acts in a similar way to dopamine, a natural chemical messenger involved in controlling movement and hormone release. It works mainly by activating specific dopamine receptors called D2 receptors.

Through these actions, Criptin-2.5 Tablet 10's helps regulate hormone levels and dopamine signalling in the body.
