Psychotic women with schizophrenic symptoms were treated with melperone 100 mg X 3 (n = 29) or thiothixene 10 mg X 3 (N = 34) USING A DOUBLE-BLIND PROCEDURE. Before and during treatment, levels of HVA, MOPEG, and 5-HIAA, the major metabolites of DA, NE, and 5-HT, were determined in lumbar cerebrospi

Clinical and biochemical effects of melperone (100rag • 3) and thiothixene (10 mg• 3) were studied in women with psychoses of schizophrenic or paranoid type. Psychotic morbidity and side effects were determined by rating scales. Concentrations of the major monoamine metabolites homovanillic acid (HV
Eighty-one women with psychosis of schizophrenic and paranoid type were assigned to a double-blind study comparing the clinical effects of melperone (100 mg X 3) and thiothixene (10 mg X 3). The antipsychotic effect was evaluated by clinical rating according to the CPRS and the NOSIE-30 scales befor
Buspirone, an effective antianxiety compound, produced a dose-dependent, relatively prolonged increase in rat plasma prolactin (PRL) levels. The stimulation of PRL secretion by buspirone was additive with the effect of e-methyl-p-tyrosine (AMPT) or y-butyrolactone. In vitro, buspirone itself had no
The effect of different doses of caffeine and theophylline (2,4 and 8 mg/ kg p.0.) on prolactin plasma levels in volunteer non-pregnant women has been analysed. The study of basal serum prolactin levels demonstrated great interindividual variation with a good reproducibility of the basal prolactin p
