By contrast, the 5-HT releasing drugs fenfluramine and p-chloroamphetamine (PCA) do produce a robust HTR (Singleton and Marsden 1981; Darmani 1998a). Fenfluramine and PCA are thought to act indirectly, by increasing carrier-mediated release of 5-HT, because the response can be blocked by inhibition of the 5-HT transporter (Balsara et al. 1986; Darmani 1998a) or by depletion of 5-HT (Singleton and Marsden 1981; Balsara et al. 1986). Because indirect 5-HT agonists such as fenfluramine, PCA, and 5-HTP are not hallucinogenic (Van Praag et al. 1971; Brauer et al. 1996; Turner et al. 2006), their effects on HTR can potentially be classified as false-positive responses.}}</ref><ref name="HalberstadtChathaKlein2020">{{cite journal | vauthors = Halberstadt AL, Chatha M, Klein AK, Wallach J, Brandt SD | title = Correlation between the potency of hallucinogens in the mouse head-twitch response assay and their behavioral and subjective effects in other species | journal = Neuropharmacology | volume = 167 | issue = | pages = 107933 | date = May 2020 | pmid = 31917152 | pmc = 9191653 | doi = 10.1016/j.neuropharm.2019.107933 | url = | quote = Indirect 5-HT2A agonists such as fenfluramine, p-chloroamphetamine (PCA), and 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) induce head twitches in rodents (Corne et al. 1963; Singleton and Marsden 1981; Darmani 1998) but do not act as hallucinogens in humans (van Praag et al. 1971; Brauer et al. 1996; Turner et al. 2006), However, overdoses of compounds that increase serotonin (5-HT) release can result in 5-HT syndrome, which sometimes includes hallucinations (Birmes et al. 2003; Evans and Sebastian 2007).}}</ref><ref name="WojtasGołembiowska2023">{{cite journal | vauthors = Wojtas A, Gołembiowska K | title = Molecular and Medical Aspects of Psychedelics | journal = Int J Mol Sci | volume = 25 | issue = 1 | date = December 2023 | page = 241 | pmid = 38203411 | pmc = 10778977 | doi = 10.3390/ijms25010241 | doi-access = free | url = | quote = While some false positives have been identified, such as fenfluramine, p-chloroamphetamine, and 5-hydroxytryptophan, the test predominantly exhibits specificity for 5-HT2A receptor agonists .}}</ref>
