Mania induced by metoclopramide: case report.
A case is reported in which a patient became manic while taking metoclopramide, a drug which affects several neurotransmitter systems. The apparent relationship between the manic symptoms and metoclopramide was strengthened by a placebo period with no such symptoms, followed by recurrence upon rechallenge. Amitriptyline blunted the manic response.
