Abstract
Two challenges with meta-chlorophenylpiperazine (m-CPP, 0.5 mg/kg, p.o.) were performed in healthy volunteers to test the short-term stability of hormonal responses. Challenges were performed in an identical fashion and were conducted on sequential days, Circulating m-CPP plasma levels, as well as prolactin and cortisol responses to m-CPP, were correspondingly similar in magnitude on the 2 days. These data suggest that both prolactin and cortisol responses to single oral administrations of m-CPP are stable over at least a 24-h period.
