Quinagolide
Quinagolide is a non-ergot-derived selective dopamine D2 receptor agonist that acts on lactotroph D2 receptors in the pituitary gland to suppress prolactin secretion. It is used for the treatment of hyperprolactinemia including prolactin-secreting adenomas, and has been investigated for its anti-angiogenic properties in endometriosis.
