Inoue, K., N. Kiriike, Y. Fujisaki, M. Kurioka and S. Yamagami. Effects of fluvoxamine on food intake during rebound hyperphagia in rats. Physiol Behav 61(4) 603–608, 1997.—We examined the effects of fluvoxamine on food intake during rebound hyperphagia induced by a time-restricted feeding schedule in rats. Rats were allowed access to food for only 2 h daily for 7 days, and then had free access to food for 7 consecutive days. The daily food intake of the rats was dramatically increased, by 42.5% (rebound hyperphagia), for 7 days of the free-feeding period. Intraperitoneal injection of fluvoxamine decreased food intake significantly in a dose-dependent manner for the first 3 h of feeding during 7 days. When rats were allowed access to one of the standard, carbohydrate-, fat-, or protein-rich diets in the free-feeding period following the time-restricted feeding schedule, fluvoxamine significantly decreased food intakes of standard, carbohydrate- and fat-rich diets on all days, and the protein-rich diet after the 2nd day of the free-feeding period. These results indicate that fluvoxamine, irrespective of the diet composition, suppresses rebound hyperphagia induced by a time-restricted feeding schedule, but that its effect is short-lived.
