Therefore I suggest that any women who takes amisulpride be prepared to take pramipexole or bromocriptine in conjunction with the amisulpride in order to maintain normal prolactin levels and eliminate these side effects along with any tendency towards weight gain.

Thanks for the info on Amisulpride. I think I will pass on trying this one. The side effects are not worth it. Thanks for letting me know before I ordered any!Lynne
