Cybercafe - I have no idea what I said that could warrant such a response as I received to my original post. Many articles have been written denouncing serotonin's role (especially that of 5-HT2A) in the mechanism of action of the newer antipsychotis.
Most researchers now agree that it is the reversibility of binding to the D2 receptors that decreases the incidence of EPS with the newer agents. I will explain why I think that Seroquel should not cause EPS at any dose, just like Clozaril.
I will post my answer later today as I do not want emotiomsto cloud my answer. I believe that there are other explanations for Lost Boy's EPS than it being caused by Seroquel. I will be using the research of Phil Seeman, Shitij Kapur, Gary Remington, Herbert Mektzer, as well as other very, very respected researchers in the field of the psychopharmacology in schizophrenia to state my case.
Thank you gor you patience - Cam
