As you suggest, I did mean to state that both Ritalin/methylphenidate and Zyprexa/olanzapine can increase extracellular levels of dopamine. I also agree that it can increase dopamine release as you suggest; however, I am not aware of any research that suggests that high, clinically relevant doses can cause that effect. Do you know of any?
Why don't you view CSF HVA as a reliable indicator of overall dopamine release in the CNS? Are you basing that on personal opinion or a journal article(s)?
thanks,
Shawn
