The distribution of eating, drinking and body weight changes during the 24 hr day were examined following brain 5-HT depletion with p-chloroamphetamine (PCA). Following a baseline period, measurements of food and water intakes and body weights were recorded 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 20 and 24 hr following PCA, 5.0 mg/kg, or saline. Other animals were pretreated with fluoxetine, 10.0 mg/kg, prior to either PCA or saline in an attempt to block the PCA effects. The results indicate acute hypophagia, hypodipsia, and body weight losses. These decreases were not influenced by the time of day when PCA was administered. Pretreatment with fluoxetine enhanced rather than blocked these effects. No long term changes in ingestive behavior were seen. These results are discussed with respect to the possible role of 5-HT in the control of ingestive behavior.
