Re: 5HT2A-antagonism + 5HT2C-agonism Would Be Ideal

In reply to 5HT2A-antagonism + 5HT2C-agonism Would Be Ideal, posted by Brainbeard on May 28, 2010, at 15:17:55

"Fluoxetine/Prozac, by the way, of course has antidopaminergic properties, like any SSRI. Serotonin puts a brake on dopamine, to put it simply. Prozac causes sexual dysfunction like any other SSRI. It elevates prolactin levels like any other SSRI, which is also an antidopaminergic feature."

But whats the end result? I dont say there arent any anti dopaminergic propertie's, but its 5HT2C antagonism may counteract any anti dopaminergic activity, so in the end its not anti dopaminergic anymore.

Like the study i posted points toward INCREASED dopamine and not reduced.
