title: [The treatment of cyclic mastalgia--a comparative study between the preparations Bromocriptine and Geritamin].
abstract: The aim of the prospective randomized study was to compare the reduction in cyclical breast pain after treatment with oral bromocriptine for 30 days (42 cases) and Geritamine for 40 days (44 cases). The overall response rate to first group was 78.5% and 64.0% to second group. Nine patients treated with bromocriptine and 15 cases with Geritamine have refractory cyclical mastalgia (not influence). The relapse rate after stopping bromocriptine was 30.3% and was 44.8%, with a mean follow-up of 5 months. The investigators indicate that these agents will be used for a twice per year.
