Sympathoadrenomedullary hyperactivity in the neuroleptic malignant syndrome: a case report.

J H Feibel, R B Schiffer.   

Abstract

The authors describe a patient with the neuroleptic malignant syndrome whose excessive catecholamine excretion indicates hyperactivity of the sympathoadrenomedullary component of the autonomic nervous system. Their finding provides a physiological basis for using catecholamine blocking agents to treat some patients with this syndrome.
