Prolactin and neuroleptic drugs

A I Green et al. Endocrinol Metab Clin North Am. 1988 Mar.

Abstract

Serum prolactin is reliably elevated by the antipsychotic drugs. Prolactin levels have been followed in psychotic patients during the use of these drugs as an indicator of underlying pathophysiology or as a reflection of drug activity. Considerable research is underway to elucidate further the potential clinical and research utility of the prolactin response to neuroleptic drugs.
