- Abstract:

The effects of the 5-HT receptor antagonist, metergoline, on the prolactin and growth hormone responses to intravenous L-tryptophan were assessed in seven normal subjects. Pretreatment with metergoline lowered baseline prolactin concentration and abol ished the increase in prolactin following L-tryptophan.
