  • Title: Intracerebral hemorrhage in normotensive mothers using bromocriptine postpartum.
    Author: Iffy L, McArdle JJ, Ganesh V.
    Journal: Zentralbl Gynakol; 1996; 118(7):392-5. PubMed ID: 8766098.
    Abstract:
    Three cases of cerebral hemorrhage that occurred in the puerperium in normotensive women who used bromocriptine for milk suppression postpartum are described. Unlike in some other instances reported in the past, the extent of the bleeding was limited in these patients and the long range outcome was relatively benign. All episodes were associated with the development of hypertension. These incidents occurred between the 10th and 17th days postpartum; somewhat later than the usually observed peak time period (6th to 8th day) for the development of severe bromocriptine related side effects.
