Abstract
The psychoactive drugs imipramine, chlorpromazine and lithium chloride inhibit tryptamine tetrazolium reductase activity in vitro by 68, 60 and 33% respectively at a concentration of 1 x 10(-3) M while amphetamine negligibly inhibits the enzyme activity. No change in enzyme activity is observed in vivo.
