Objective: Prolactinomas-pituitary tumors that overproduce prolactin-can cause various troublesome symptoms. Dopamine agonists (DAs) reduce prolactin production in the prolactin pathway, making them the first-line treatment for prolactinomas. However, the main side effect of DA treatment, hyperdopaminergia, is an explicit etiology for psychiatric side effects.

Introduction: Hyperprolactinaemia, a common adverse effect of antipsychotic drugs, is primarily linked to blockade of dopamine D2 receptors in the pituitary gland. Certain antipsychotic drugs, such as, for example risperidone and paliperidone, are more likely to induce hyperprolactinaemia compared to others. This effect is probably caused by a relatively high blood/brain concentration ratio, a consequence of being a substrate of P-glycoprotein.
