public static Map<Object,List<String>> getDependentPicklistValues(Schema.sObjectField dependentField){
        Map<Object,List<String>> dependentPicklistValues = new Map<Object,List<String>>();

        Schema.DescribeFieldResult dependentFieldResult = dependentField.getDescribe();
		//Get dependent field controlling field 
        Schema.sObjectField controllerField = dependentFieldResult.getController();
		//Check controlling field is not null
        if(controllerField == null){
            return null;

        Schema.DescribeFieldResult controllerFieldResult = controllerField.getDescribe();
		//Get controlling field picklist values if controlling field is not a checkbox
        List<Schema.PicklistEntry> controllerValues = (controllerFieldResult.getType() == Schema.DisplayType.Boolean ? null : controllerFieldResult.getPicklistValues());

                    Integer bitIndex = i / 6;
                    Integer bitShift = 5 - Math.mod(i, 6 );
