[Effect of long term dialysis therapy on blood prolactin patients with chronic renal failure]

An effect of dialysis therapy on baseline prolactinemia and prolactinemia following suppression test with alpha-bromocriptine was determined in 34 patients with chronic renal failure. Gradual decrease in hyperprolactinemia with the duration of dialysis therapy has been observed. Prolactinemia baseline values in patients dialysed for 100 months did not differ from those determined in healthy individuals.
