title: [Effectiveness of lysenyl-forte treatment in acromegaly and hyperprolactinemia syndrome].
abstract: Lysenyl-forte, a derivative of polysynthetic ergot alkaloids, producing a dopaminergic and antiserotoninergic action was employed to treat acromegaly and prolactin hypersecretion in 11 and 71 patients, respectively. Clinical effect was established basing on a complex of clinical, x-ray, neuro-ophthalmologic and hormonal evidence. Acromegaly treatment proved efficient: 7 patients (63%) showed partial relief of clinical signs, reduced STH blood level. Out of 48 patients with prolactinemia a response was registered in 34 (71%): a more than 50% decrease in prolactin concentration, normal levels of the hormone in 35% of the patients. A menstrual cycle recovered, galactorrhea diminished, 2 women got pregnant. A positive effect was noticed in management of 13 sterile men with prolactin hypersecretion, in 6 patients with idiopathic prolactin hypersecretion, in 4 women with primary hypothyrosis and galactorrhea. Compared to parlodel, lysenyl was not superior in the frequency of side effects, though was inferior in clinical effectiveness. The drug is recommended for wide-scale use.
