Description

Application

(±)-Sulpiride was used to study the effect of dopamine D₂ receptor signaling on calcium channels in rat pituitary melanotropic cells.⁴⁷

Biochem/physiol Actions

(±)-Sulpiride is a D₂ dopamine antagonist and an effective treatment for schizophrenia when used in combination with clozapine, a relatively weak D₂-dopaminergic antagonist. It is an antipsychotic agent and also exhibits neuroleptic properties but poorly penetrates the central nervous system.^45,46
