The activity of bromocriptin has been clinically tested on 18 patients suffering from psoriasis. The plasma levels of Human Growth Hormone (HGH), Human Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH), Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), Prolactin (PL), Aldosterone and Cortisol were investigated in these 18 patients along with 35 untreated psoriatic patients and 19 normal subjects. Bromocriptin was shown to be effective in 13 of our 18 psoriatic patients. Plasma levels of HGH, ACTH, and Aldosterone, measured in all 53 psoriatic patients, were found to be higher than normal in 11, 26 and 40 patients respectively (HGH and Aldosterone: p less than 0,005; ACTH: p less than 0,001).
