Abstract

A case of diethylpropion-induced psychosis in a 26-year-old woman is reported. The patient's psychosis recurred while she was receiving phenelzine. It is postulated that chronic stimulant use leads to increased sensitivity to the psychosis-inducing effects of monoamine oxidase inhibitors.
