  • Title: Inhibition of lactation in rabbits by 2-Br-alpha-Ergokryptine-mesilate (CB154).
    Author: Flückiger E, Billeter E, Wagner HR.
    Journal: Arzneimittelforschung; 1976; 26(1):51-3. PubMed ID: 947176.
    Abstract:
    The lactating rabbit responds to single injections of the inhibitor of prolactin secretion 2-Br-alpha-ergokryptine-mesilate (CB 154) by a reversible reduction in milk yield, which is dose-dependent. Inhibition of galactopoiesis by CB 154 is also observed in rats, dogs, pigs and in woman, but not in goats and cattle. This points to a difference in prolactin dependence of galactopoiesis in the two groups.
