From the land of litigous lawyers:  This appeared in our paper today

ATTENTION  WOMEN WHO CHOSE NOT TO BREAST FEED THEIR CHILDREN (PARLODEL USERS)

The drug bromocriptine mesylate, sold under the tradename Parlodel, has been
widely administered to women who chose not to breastfeed, and therefore
wished to suppress the lactation of breast milk [sic], after giving birth.

Medical research indicates that Parlodel may be responsible for severe
adverse reactions in certain women using the drug.

If you or someone you know experienced heart problems/heart attacks, stroke,
severe hypertension/high blood pressure and/or seizures after being
prescribed Parlodel, and have concerns and/or desire information regarding
your legal rights for the possible health risks of Parlodel, call:

(713-491-5000)

1-800-408-3325, Reed & Terry, Attorneys at Law, One Sugar Creek Center
Blvd., Suite 815, Sugar Land, Texas 77478

Anyone know anything more about this?
