THAT was a very interesting picture!! Thanks for the pie chart links, good for those of us too lazy to do all the neurotransmitter binding site research stuff :-)

OK sorry for all the stalking... but H is for histamine, 5HT is serotonin, D is for dopamine right?? but what's the straight A1, A2 and the M if you don't mind?

I believe A1 is the alpha-adrenergic receptor that is responsible for orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure) in Seroquel

The "M" muscarinic receptor profiles are more complicated, but are named for the "fly agaric mushroom" Amanita muscaria; antagonists are anticholinergics.

I'm sure ed_uk could add more...

thats pretty cool but half of olanzapine seems to be missing, or is it all M?

Haldol seems to be the most "dopamine" blocking.

Is there a diffrence in the effects on how your perception is changed by which transmitter is more effected?

What about Thorazine?

...and among ones that causes the most EPS/TD as well... Haldol is very cheap, but I think more "kinder, gentler" atypicals should be used before resorting to it unless the disorder in hand is very uncontrollable

the chart [fig 18.6] (I was trying to find another similar one that included more modern medications)
shows relative binding of certain older neuroleptics
