Patient summary
Aripiprazole tablets in five strengths from 5mg to 30mg, used in the management of schizophrenia and manic episodes. Taken by mouth once daily.
Mechanism of action
Aripiprazole acts as a partial agonist at dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT1A receptors, while acting as an antagonist at serotonin 5-HT2A receptors. This unique mechanism helps normalize dopamine activity in the brain.
