> Please tell me how to activate the D-3 receptors. Do low doses of the dopamine antagonists (as in the previous post) do this? Or do you need a dopamine agonist instead?
Hi there,
I can partially answer to you. Pramipexole (Mirapex) is a D3 receptor agonist. It has been proven effective in treatment-resistant depression.
However it has also some drawbacks. Anger, rage and hyperactivity have also been reported as side effects.
Good luck!
