To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{Routes of administration, dosage forms | state = collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar. {{Routes of administration, dosage forms | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
They act by antagonizing the α 2-adrenergic receptor and certain serotonin receptors such as 5-HT 2A and 5-HT 2C, [1] but also 5-HT 3, [1] 5-HT 6, and/or 5-HT 7 in some cases. By blocking α 2 -adrenergic autoreceptors and heteroreceptors , NaSSAs enhance adrenergic and serotonergic neurotransmission in the brain involved in mood regulation ...
Serotonin. A serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SRI) is a type of drug which acts as a reuptake inhibitor of the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, or 5-HT) by blocking the action of the serotonin transporter (SERT). This in turn leads to increased extracellular concentrations of serotonin and, therefore, an increase in serotonergic ...
Unlike other antipsychotics, pimavanserin is not a dopamine receptor antagonist, [5] but rather is a selective antagonist or inverse agonist of the serotonin 5-HT 2A receptor and to a lesser extent of the serotonin 5-HT 2C receptor. [3] Pimavanserin was first approved for medical use in 2016. [3] It was approved as a generic medication in 2024. [6]
Serotonin (/ ˌ s ɛr ə ˈ t oʊ n ɪ n, ˌ s ɪər ə-/) [6] [7] [8] or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is a monoamine neurotransmitter.Its biological function is complex, touching on diverse functions including mood, cognition, reward, learning, memory, and numerous physiological processes such as vomiting and vasoconstriction.

In addition, the augmentation of a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) or serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor with lisdexamfetamine, a norepinephrine–dopamine releasing agent, recently failed to separate from placebo in phase III clinical trials of individuals with treatment-resistant depression, and clinical development was ...
More specifically, it is an antagonist/inverse agonist at most or all sites of the histamine H 1 receptor, serotonin 5-HT 1D, 5-HT 1F, 5-HT 2A, 5-HT 2B, 5-HT 2C, 5-HT 3, 5-HT 6, and 5-HT 7 receptors, and adrenergic α 1-and α 2-adrenergic receptors, and additionally a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor.
