Clinical information

Aripiprazol is an active ingredient of the group of atypical neuroleptic agents and is administered for treating schizophrenia and manic episodes of bipolar disorders . The therapeutic effects are based upon an antagonism at the serotonin-5HT2a-receptors and a partial agonism at the dopamin-D2-receptors and the serotonin-5HT1a-receptors. This means, that aripiprazol can regulate the dopamine concentration from two aspects, and also has an antagonistic effect on the serotonin receptors as other atypical neuroleptics. Thus the effective ingredient is counted as part of the third generation neuroleptics. Frequent side effects are headache, persistent nausea, sleeplessness and constipation.
