Hi Med! :-)
>This more nuanced view is also behind some newer drugs for schizophrenia--particularly Abilify, which functions as a dual dopamine antagonist/agonist (and has similar effects on serotonin, as well). Apparently, the "next-generation" schizophrenia meds will probably be more Abilify-like than, say, Zyprexa-like in their dopamine actions.
