Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Bromocriptine is used to treat certain conditions like excessive or abnormal breast milk production and certain menstrual problems, caused by increased prolactin in the blood (hyperprolactinemia).
Bromocriptine is also used as a fertility drug that can help you to conceive if you are experiencing problems with ovulation.
There might be certain interactions happening and could cause symptoms like headache, nausea and vomiting. It can also affect hepatic function and could cause increase in certain liver enzymes in certain patients. Hence, it would advisable to take both there drugs with certain amount of caution.

Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
