Ergot: Ergot derivatives like bromocriptine can potentially cause lots of problems (The movie Awakenings staring Robyn Williams chronicles the early years of Dopamine modulating agents) There are cause and effect issues that need to be clarified. (We used to use Bromocriptine to treat people with aphasia following stroke at the Boston VA) With proper monitoring Bromocriptine can be used safely.
