Re: Gepirone has not dissapeared!

Hi Phillippa,

Some 'knowledgeable people' think it is very similar to Buspirone (Buspar). This also is an agonist on the 5HT1a-receptors & an antagonist on the N-a2-receptors. However, the clinical studies show Gepirone has a different set of adverse events. The difference being that Buspirone also is a partial agonist for the D-a2-receptor. As you might know, 1 extra neurotransmitter could upset the whole system, so...

@ Maximus
Interesting theory about the N-a2-receptor tringering agression... However, I'm a bit puzzled. Taken loads of meds working on this particular receptor (and others), but never felt agression (i.e. Remeron, Dipiperone (Pipamperone). Got any links for me?

Cheers,
Maria
