Exploring Current and Emerging Antipsychotic Medications: A Comprehensive Review of Proposed Mechanisms of Action for Effectiveness
Received Date: Jan 01, 2024 / Published Date: Jan 31, 2024
Abstract
Antipsychotic medications are vital for the management of various psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and certain types of depression. This review explores both current and emerging antipsychotic medications, focusing on their mechanisms of action for effectiveness. Traditional antipsychotics primarily target dopamine receptors, while atypical antipsychotics also modulate serotonin receptors, leading to improved efficacy and tolerability. Emerging research suggests involvement of glutamatergic modulation, anti-inflammatory properties, and neuroplasticity in the therapeutic effects of antipsychotics. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for advancing treatment strategies and developing novel therapies for psychotic disorders
