OBJECTIVE Dopamine agonists have a well established place in the treatment of hyperprolactinaemic disorders but their use is associated with a high incidence of adverse effects. We have investigated the biochemical efficacy and side-effect profile of a range of doses of the novel, long-acting

Disease-specific impairments in quality of life during long-term follow-up of patients with different pituitary adenomas.
