What Are the Purchase Channels for Cabergoline?

Overseas Purchase

Patients can choose to consult and purchase cabergoline at hospital pharmacies or regular pharmacies in countries or regions where the drug has been marketed.

Since drug prices may be affected by factors such as regional differences and exchange rate fluctuations, patients need to make budget and plans before purchasing.

Purchase via Medical Service Institutions

Patients can consult domestic overseas medical service institutions that cooperate with international pharmacies or pharmaceutical companies.

These institutions can usually provide legal import channels and offer professional consultation and guidance.

Precautions for Purchasing Cabergoline

Strictly Follow Medical Evaluation

According to the drug instructions, a cardiovascular assessment is required before use, and the drug is prohibited for patients with cardiac valve lesions.

Verify Drug Qualifications

When purchasing, it is necessary to confirm the imported drug registration certificate number marked on the drug packaging, and the authenticity of the batch number can be checked through the official website of the National Medical Products Administration.

Contraindications

Patients with uncontrolled hypertension.

Individuals allergic to ergot derivatives.

Patients with a history of pleural, pulmonary, or retroperitoneal fibrotic diseases.

Confirm Drug Version

Cabergoline is usually circulated in the Chinese market under the trade name "Dostinex" with a specification of 0.5mg per tablet.

If the name, dosage, or manufacturer information marked on the packaging is inconsistent with the official filing, the purchase should be terminated immediately.

Identification of Authentic Cabergoline

Packaging Feature Verification

Genuine cabergoline tablets are white with functional score lines, marked with letters P and U (on either side of the score line) on one side and the number 700 on the other side.

If there are abnormalities in the tablet color, score lines, or markings, high vigilance is required.

Query the Traceability System

The full circulation record can be inquired by scanning the China Drug Electronic Supervision Code on the drug packaging.

If the scanning result shows missing information or inconsistency with the physical product, there may be a risk of counterfeiting.

Pharmacological Property Verification

After oral administration, genuine cabergoline reaches the peak blood concentration in 2-3 hours with a half-life of approximately 63-69 hours.

If abnormal reactions occur after taking the medicine (such as ineffectiveness or side effects inconsistent with the description in the instruction manual), the drug should be sent for inspection in a timely manner.
