I think the dosage range for amisulpride in the treatment of depression or dysthymia is 25 - 100 mg/day. Amisulpride is a dopamine antagonist that is preferential to presynaptic autoreceptors at low dosages. Blocking these receptors ends up being pro-dopaminergic because it signals the neuron to manufacture and release more dopamine via a negative feedback loop.

I feel Amisulpride can be extremely effective yet extremely unpredictable.
The lower doses never worked for me. Been on it numerous times, and failed it numerous times. This time at 100mg, feeling motivated on the third day.
The effect may eventually disappear? What should I do then?
