  • Title: Hormonal response during a fenfluramine-associated panic attack.
    Author: Vieira AH, Ramos RT, Gentil V.
    Journal: Braz J Med Biol Res; 1997 Jul; 30(7):887-90. PubMed ID: 9361714.
    Abstract:
    Secretion curves for prolactin, cortisol, TSH, and GH from a 37-year old woman with dysthymia and panic disorder with agoraphobia were determined one day prior to (day I), and during a panic attack (day II) associated with an oral dose of 60 mg dl-fenfluramine, a drug known to increase anticipatory anxiety. The increased cortisol secretion observed is discussed in relation to the hormonal correlates of anxiety and the possible role of depression, dl-fenfluramine, and serotonergic receptor sensitivity.
