Mazindol induced a dose-related inhibition of the uptake of labelled 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) by guinea pig blood platelets. It was more potent than d-fenfluramine. Mazindol and d-fenfluramine decreased 5-hydroxy-indoleacetic acid formation in intact platelets but not in sonicated ones. The inhibitory effects of both drugs appeared to the competitive in nature and were markedly reduced in platelets suspended in plasma instead of in Tyrode solution. Mazindol neither decreased the stored endogenous 5-HT nor caused efflux of the labelled amine from preloaded platelets, whereas d-fenfluramine induced a significant release of the amine. It is concluded that mazindol, like d-fenfluramine, competes with 5-HT for the same transport mechanisms at the cytoplasmic membrane level but this effect is not accompanied, as is the case with d-fenfluramine, by a concomitant release of the amine.
