Q. re atypical antipsychotics and dopamine -- Cam?

Posted by anita on November 8, 2000, at 19:36:52

Hi,
I'd like to know if very low doses of risperidone or Zyprexa increase dopamine globally, not just in the mesocortical pathway via 5HT2A antagonism. In other words, do low doses of these meds work like amisulpride, which increases dopamine globally at low doses? For various reasons, it's very important that I try to find an answer to this question, so any input would be greatly appreciated.
I am taking a low dose of risperidone (1mg/day) and it feels a lot like low-dose amisulpride.
