In another post, you mentioned a good question:
Since both Viibryd and Abilify are partial 5HT1A agonists, how would this affect receptor occupancy?
Have you found the answer to this question?
Wikipedia reports the following:
Vilazodone, 5HT1a :
IC50 = 0.5 nM; IA = ~60-70%Aripiprazole, 5HT1a:
Ki = 1.65 nMI am more familiar with the units used in the Aripiprazole document and don't know what IC50 stands for. Did you ever answer this question yourself? I am curious. If the units were the same, wouldn't a lower Ki value mean higher affinity?
