title: Prolactin response to TRH after intravenous cimetidine.
abstract: Cimetidine administered intravenously to six healthy volunteers caused a significant increase in plasma prolactin response to TRH. The meaning of these results and their relation with the physiological role of histamine H2-receptors in the control of prolactin secretion is discussed.
