However, 50% of Bromocriptin treated and 17% of Cabergoline treated patients are resistant to these drugs. Curcumin is the main derivative of turmeric ,an old spice which is used frequently in Indian and Iranian cuisine.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of turmeric on prolactinoma patients.
