Brom Tablet contains bromocriptine (2.5 mg), which works in the body as follows:

• Inhibits Prolactin Secretion: Bromocriptine acts on the anterior pituitary gland in your body, inhibiting the release of prolactin. This leads to a reduction in prolactin levels in the body.

• Stimulates Dopamine Receptors: Bromocriptine also works by stimulating dopamine receptors in the brain, which helps manage symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

• Suppresses Growth Hormone Release: In conditions like acromegaly, bromocriptine suppresses the release of growth hormone, helping to manage the condition.

• Enhances Insulin Sensitivity: For type 2 diabetes, bromocriptine enhances the body's sensitivity to insulin and decreases glucose production in the liver, aiding in blood sugar control.
