"Nefazodone significantly increased plasma levels of prolactin (PRL) and raised oral temperature. There was also a trend towards an increase in plasma cortisol. These results are consistent with an acute facilitatory effect of some aspects of 5-HT neurotransmission, perhaps mediated through nefazodone's metabolism to its major metabolite, m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP)."
this may be wrong, i was under the impression that a 5-HT2a antagonistic mechanism would lower cortisol, so i am thinking either the mCPP metabolite much more significant than imagined, or the drug is much messier than it already looks. and prolactin...?
