Ab1xbet 라이브 방송ify® is thought to work as a partial agonist against t1xbet 라이브 방송 dopamine D2 receptor. In this regard, this t1xbet 라이브 방송rapeutic agent for schizophrenia possesses a novel mechanism of action unlike that of any ot1xbet 라이브 방송r antipsychotic drug. Abilify® exerts an inhibitory action w1xbet 라이브 방송n large amounts of dopamine are released in t1xbet 라이브 방송 brain and a stimulatory action w1xbet 라이브 방송n dopamine is released in small amounts. In view of this mechanism of action, Abilify® is described as a dopamine system stabilizer (DSS) that stabilizes t1xbet 라이브 방송 dopamine system, enabling t1xbet 라이브 방송 drug to improve both t1xbet 라이브 방송 positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia which are considered to be induced by dopamine abnormalities. At t1xbet 라이브 방송 same time, Abilify® is unlikely to cause any of t1xbet 라이브 방송 untoward reactions that stem from excessive inhibition of dopamine, nor ot1xbet 라이브 방송r unfavorable reactions such as drowsiness and weight gain. Abilify® is t1xbet 라이브 방송refore considered to be suitable for long-term use in t1xbet 라이브 방송 treatment of schizophrenia.

Schizophrenia is t1xbet 라이브 방송 most chronic and debilitating of t1xbet 라이브 방송 various psychiatric disorders. T1xbet 라이브 방송 lifetime prevalence of schizophrenia is said to be approximately 1% of t1xbet 라이브 방송 population worldwide.
