Hyperthermia after discontinuance of levodopa and bromocriptine therapy: impaired dopamine receptors a possible cause.

Abstract

Hyperthermia, with no signs of any underlying infection, may occur in the course of neuroleptic malignant syndrome, fatal catatonia, heat stroke, or malignant hyperthermia. We describe hyperthermia as a complication after discontinuance of antiparkinsonian treatment with levodopa/carbidopa and bromocriptine. Impaired nigrostriatal, hypothalamic, and mesolimbic dopaminergic functions could be involved in pathogenesis.
