Abstract

Antipsychotic drugs are critical to the treatment of many psychiatric and neurological disorders. Their mechanism of action is thought to involve antagonism of the dopamine D2 receptor, however, they exert a diversity of effects on other monoamine systems and also modulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. © 2007
