Sorry, forgot the part about how it works.  Parlodel (bromocriptine) is an
ergot derivative with potent dopamine receptor agonist activity.  It
supresses the release of prolactin from anterior pituitary.  With
Parkinson's it works on the corpus striatum.  With acromegaly it reduces
circulating levels of serum  growth hormone.  Sincerely, Pat in SNJ
