Abstract

The effects of clozapine treatment on neuroendocrine responses induced by the serotonin agonist, m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP) were examined. mCPP and placebo were administered after a 2-week drug-free period and again after 5 weeks of clozapine treatment in nine schizophrenic inpatients. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), prolactin, and mCPP levels were measured. Clozapine treatment completely blocked mCPP-induced ACTH and prolactin release suggesting that clozapine blocks serotonin receptors that mediate these hormone responses.
