Serotonin-dopamine antagonists
Serotonin-dopamine antagonists are a type of medication that help manage mental health and neurological conditions by blocking certain brain chemicals called serotonin and dopamine. These chemicals influence mood, perception, and behavior. By preventing their effects, these drugs can reduce symptoms like hallucinations, delusions, agitation, and mood swings, making them useful in treating disorders such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. They help stabilize brain activity, improving overall mental function. These medications are prescribed carefully by healthcare providers to balance benefits and minimize side effects.
