Stimulation of human prolactin secretion by mescaline
Psychopharmacology September 1, 1979 L. Demisch, Manfred Neubauer 8 citations
Oral administration of 5 mg/kg mescaline stimulated prolactin secretion more than four-fold above baseline in humans, with peak concentrations 90–120 minutes after intake and levels still markedly elevated five hours later. Mescaline also triggered growth hormone secretion. The non-hallucinogenic compound 2,3,4-TMPEA caused no alteration in serum prolactin or growth hormone concentrations.
