What are the available partial dopamine agonists?

Abilify, Vraylar, Rexulti? Is Caplyta one?

Lumateperone affects serotonergic, dopaminergic and glutamatergic systems in the central nervous system. It is a potent serotonergic (5-HT2A) antagonist, partial agonist at presynaptic dopamine receptors and antagonist at postsynaptic dopamine receptors.

Thanks @RottenApple

Not taking another partial dopamine agonist again.
Abilify and Vraylar made me super anxious and nuts.

I feel like they would give me anxiety too. I had panic anxiety from ritalin.

I think ziprasidone raises dopamine in other areas of brain but not d2 agonist. I read about it in one of the technical articles

yeah it’s only vraylar abilify and rexulti, caplyta isnt a partial agonist but also not really a potent d2 blocker like first/second generation AP’s.

Latuda also activates 5-HT1A but I still had negative symptoms. I think for me Abilify normalizes dopamine in all the brain instead of fully blocking it, not just in the prefrontal cortex. Its the only thing that worked for my severe negative symptoms.

Wellbutrin directly increases dopamine in the prefrontal cortex. It didn’t help my negative symptoms after a month of being on it.

I really think it’s just the three. Abilify, Rexulti and Vraylar. I think you are searching for a drug that does not yet exist.

Ikr, I am looking for a partial agonist other than Abilify/Rexulti that’s available in Canada lol I guess it doesn’t exist. I wish I had a list of all antipsychotics worldwide.
