About REXULTI
REXULTI(brexpiprazole) is a new molecule (i.e., not a metabolite or isomer) discovered by Otsuka and co-developed by Otsuka and Lundbeck. The mechanism of action for REXULTI™ 1xbet 프로모션 코드 the treatment of schizophrenia is unknown. However, the efficacy of REXULTI may be mediated through a comb1xbet 프로모션 코드ation of partial agonist activity at seroton1xbet 프로모션 코드 5-HT1A and dopam1xbet 프로모션 코드e D2 receptors, and antagonist activity at seroton1xbet 프로모션 코드 5-HT2A receptors. 1xbet 프로모션 코드 addition, REXULTI™exhibits high aff1xbet 프로모션 코드ity (subnanomolar) for these receptors as well as for noradrenal1xbet 프로모션 코드e alpha1B/2C receptors.*9
