Chronic renal failure is associated with high circulating levels of growth hormone (GH) which are not affected by stimuili such as glucose loading.' They may be due to delayed degradation, excessive secretion, or both. Secretion of GH seems to be increased by catecholamines.' Bromocriptine (2-brom-alpha-ergocryptine; CB 154), an ergot alkaloid with dopaminergic activity, suppresses abnormal GH ...
