Can you take dostinex (cabergoline) with parkinson's?

Perhaps: It is used in other countries to treat pd, it is not approved in the us to treat pd. It may interact with a persons pd medications and should only be taken under the care of a physician.

Wouldn't advise: Dostinex is a long-lasting Dopamine agonist, also called cabergoline. It is ergot-derived & therefore carries a risk of heart-valve fibrosis, like Permax or Parlodel (removed from the us market because of this issue). A much better, safe choice would be the currently used, non-ergot derived Dopamine agonists, such as Requip xl, neupro, (rotigotine) or Mirapex er. Hope that clarifies the issue for you! rmh :).
