摘要：

As expected on the basis of published research in both humans and animals, treatment with phentermine/fenfluramine lowers plasma 5-hydroxytryptophan whereas treatment with phentermine had no significant effect. In light of these findings, future research should focus on mechanisms other than increased plasma 5-hydroxytryptophan to explain how fenfluramine increases the risk of primary pulmonary hypertension and valvular heart disease.
