> On his [Baron Shopsin's] last day, I chased him as he was pulling out of the parking lot with is Maserati. This was in 1986. He rolled down his window, and said but one word to me Periactin. Then he drove off. Periactin is cyproheptadine a drug primarily used as an antihistamine. However, its serotonergic actions were ignored. I never tried cyproheptadine, but my guess is that Shopsin thought its underappreciated serotonergic properties would help me.
>Cyproheptadine (Periactin) is a powerful 5-HT2A antagonist. One of its uses is as an antidote to serotonin syndrome. Another use is as a hypnotic. I tried it myself for the latter.
