Olanzapine Dopamine Antagonist Action Pathway
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126805Drug actionlanzapine is an atypical (second-generation) antipsychotic that exerts its action primarily on dopamine and serotonin receptors. It works on dopamine D2 receptors in the mesolimbic pathway as an antagonist, blocking dopamine from potenti...
Enzymes: Sodium-dependent dopamine transporterMirtazapine Serotonin Antagonist Action Pathway
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126817Drug actionThe mechanism of action of mirtazapine, atypical antidepressant is not fully understood, but may be explained by its effects on central adrenergic and serotonergic activity. This drug exhibits a fast onset of action, a high level of resp...
Enzymes: Sodium-dependent serotonin transporterMinaprine Serotonin Antagonist Action Pathway
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126818Drug actionMinaprine binds to serotonin type 2 receptors and to dopamine D1 and D2 type receptors. It also binds to the serotonin reuptake pump. Therefore, minaprine blocks the reuptake of both dopamine and serotonin. It is also, to a slight degree...
