Hi, Skeletor.
Great name.
> Is Aripiprazole (and Rexulti) the only one with partial agonism at D2?
Great question. I really don't know. Nothing else comes to mind, though.
Asenapine (Saphris) is an interesting drug. I have seen it act very much like an antidepressant with someone being treated for schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type. I was impressed with how much it improved my depression during the first few weeks. Like many other drugs I've tried, it just stopped working. I'm feeing better now than I have in quite awhile since starting Nardil. I am taking 60 mg/day. I would say that I'm 30% improved versus my untreated baseline. Feels good.
