The oral administration of bromocriptine 5 mg 6‐hourly to twelve patients with acromegaly for a mean period of 12 (range 3–27) months significantly reduced whole blood glucose, plasma insulin and plasma growth hormone (GH) concentrations during a 50 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). After this period of treatment, bromocriptine was withdrawn for 48 h resulting in a significant rise in whole blood glucose, plasma insulin and plasma GH concentrations during a repeat OGTT. It is concluded that bromocriptine therapy improves glucose tolerance in acromegaly by suppressing GH secretion and consequently GH‐mediated antagonism of insulin.
