seroquel and dopamine/noradrenaline function

Posted by lukh on May 14, 2009, at 6:41:49

Hi, I recently saw the Seroquel animation from its official site, saying that quetiapine improves both Da release and Na function (net). Does NET mean Reuptake like a NaRi such as reboxetine or just its release?What kind of mechanism for desalkyl-quetiapine?
I currently take daily 300x3 carbolithium, depakin 300+500, lamictal 25x2, seroquel XR 600 in the evening, zoloft 100 mgs and solian 50 mgsx2
Any info is appreciated,

Luca

q (or its metabolite) do two things related to this. reuptake, and antagonizing alpha2 adrenoceptors. both increase both catecholamines.

so kind of like reboxetine+mirtazapine or yohimbine.

Additionaly there is 5HT2A and 5Ht2C Antagonism, which leads to dopamine release in the prefrontal cortex.
