TL;DR

There is some evidence for the view that the elimination of the dopamine acid metabolites is retarded by the two drugs but other data support the suggestion that the synthesis of the acids metabolites is increased, and against the former and in favour of the latter hypothesis are the facts that the dihydroxyphenylacetic acid and homovanillic acid levels increase simultaneously and that 5-hydroxyindoleacetic Acid is unchanged after chlorpromazine or haloperidol.
