Plasma cortisol levels were elevated in a large proportion of samples from manic patients. Although a correlation was found between clinial ratings of the severity of mania and the degree of elevation of daytime cortisol levels, some patients with low clinical ratings had elevated cortisol levels. During treatment with haloperidol, cortisol levels returned to normal earlier than the clinical state. The underlying mechanisms are discussed.
