Were you referring to Solian (amisulpride) perchance? Amisulpride enhances dopaminergic transmission at doses of 50mg and below by blocking presynaptic autoreceptors (which are a feedback mechanism for controlling dopamine production and release into the synapse). This results in higher dopamine levels in the synapse and hence the pro-motivational effects.
Amisulpride and sulpiride are unique in doing this as far as I'm aware.
