Abstract
Dopamine agonist (DA)-induced impulse control disorder (ICD) in patients with prolactinomas is not sufficiently known. Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of DA-induced ICDs and possible risk factors related to these disorders in patients with prolactinoma. Design, Setting, and Participants: This is a cross-sectional multicenter study involving 308 patientswith prolactinoma followed up in tertiary referral centers who received at least three months of DA therapy. DA-induced ICDs (pathological gambling, hypersexuality, compulsive shopping, and compulsive eating) and impulsivity were assessed using the Questionnaire for Impulsive- Compulsive Disorders in Parkinson Disease and the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-11, respectively. Patients were evaluated in terms of parameters related to ICD development. © 2019 Endocrine Society.
