In reply to Amisulpride/Sulpiride - nearest US equivalent?, posted by zero on April 16, 2002, at 9:21:26
> As Ami. & Sulp. aren't available here, I was wondering what the closest US available comparable drug(s) would be.
well im looking into amisulpride myself, but i wonder if mirapex, a parkinsons drug, would have a similar effect. it would make sense since they both act on dopamine d2 or d3. i have read posts in which people have reported benefits with dythymia/anhedonia type depression on mirapex, and a recent study confirmed that mirapex has antidepressant qualities similar to those of other antidepressants, although ive never heard anything about mirapex for social anxiety which is my biggest problem, but this is simply because of heard so little about it. what do u think?
