Supersensitive dopamine receptors/downregulation

Posted by sowhysosad on April 2, 2009, at 23:15:17

Let's say the dopamine receptors are rendered supersensitive as a side effect of an AD like fluoxetine.

If you were to add a dopaminergic supplement to the mix - NADH for example - would the receptors downregulate to adapt to the extra dopamine?

Or could this create problems by overstimulating the already overly-sensitive receptors?

I'm considering this strategy to combat EPS from fluoxetine, but I don't want to make things worse!
