Ah, I understand that effect with the APs. But it struck me as interesting that the poster had elevated prolactin on selegiline... From what I've read the MAO-B inhibition should lead to increased dopamine concentrations, more D-2 stimulation, and if anything lower prolactin...>>
It's a good question. Deprenyl has effects on serotonin also and I suppose people have different levels of MAO which can result in significant inhibition of MAO-A even at doses of deprenyl that are thought to be MAO-B selective. I have read cases of deprenyl inducing serotonin syndrome in individuals taking purportedly MAO-B- selective doses.
