The sample will be added consecutively and randomized into 2 unblinded groups: the high dosage group will receive a high cabergoline (CAB) dose for a period of \~6 months vs the standard dosage group, which will use the lowest needed dose of CAB to achieve normoprolactinemia for 2 years. The primary outcome will be remission rate.
