The Best Ways To Treat Pituitary Tumors

Dopamine Agonists

Men, you know what dopamine is. Every man does! It's a huge, huge neurotransmitter. It's responsible for so many things, like your mood and behavior. Memory too, even your movement! Men, pituitary tumors impact your dopamine. You won't get enough in many, many cases. So many cases! That's why your doc's going to prescribe dopamine agonists. These meds are going to mimic dopamine for you. The older versions, though? They've got lots of cardiovascular side effects. The new ones don't have nearly as much. Not nearly as much! And guess what? The new ones get to more specific dopamine receptors too. What a win, right?

Obviously, though, these meds have other side effects. Sleepiness and dizziness are huge ones! Men, they're obviously why you've got to avoid driving at first. You need to know how you react! You'll need to talk to your doc about coming off them too. Yes, they'll trigger withdrawal symptoms like pain and organ failure! Men, watch your dose too, and follow what your doc says. When your dose is way, way too high? Expect compulsive behaviors and mental health issues to take over. Don't let them, though! You've got that power.
