Strong 5HT2 antagonist without anticholinergic properties. It also shouldn't be a strong antihistamine, so no Mirtazapine, Miansern etc.! Is there something like that on the market?

>Well, I found mirtazapine to have way, way too powerful norepinephrine agonist properties as well. Maybe, your closest bet would be an antipsychotic. Risperdal has very powerful 5ht2a antagonist properties. If you are in the US, the antidepressant Nefadazone (Generic Serzone) I found, is an amazing, very tolerable, 5ht2a antagonist. It *really* has a relaxing effect, without making you sleepy.

However, anticholinergic properties can be therapeutic.

Pimavanserin is probably the cleanest 5-ht2a antagonist. Being approved only for Parkinson's related psychosis, however, it could be difficult to obtain.

>Yeah, I've been looking into atypical antipsychotics...
Aripiprazole is also quite interesting.
I am not against anticholinergics per se, but it seems that I show some sort of dental reaction to them. I will make photos and show them to you. Anticholinergic drugs are f*ck*ng up my enamel...

NEFAZDONE is a great drug, but not available in EUROPE. Banned because one in every 300,000 gets an exploding liver or something... :=((

This is kinda interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deramciclane
---------------------------------------------------------------------------What is your take on Amoxapine?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amoxapine
---------------------------------------------------------------------------For Pizotifen I get the following values from Ki Database https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pizotifen
5HT1A... 200 - 1700 nM
5HT2A... 15.5 nM
5HT2C... 5 - 8 nM
I didn't find values for H1 and muscarinic receptors
---------------------------------------------------------------------------https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ritanserin
Also quite strong at 5HT2
Then there is also stuff like Ketanserin, Pimavanserin etc.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nefazodone
Pretty perfect drug ^^
Never understood its ban.

I would like to continue my Nortriptyline trial, BUT it seems that I am showing some sort of dental reaction to it. Not sure if it's NORTRITYPLINE and if so, whether it's the anticholinergic properties or some other intrinsic property of Nortriptyline. I will make photos and show them to you. Something seems to f*ck*ng up my enamel and I suspect NORT... also my other teeth start to show signs or problems (pain sensitivity, small darkish dots). It's a shame, because NORT is an interesting drug, but I cannot let my teeth go to waste O_O
I have an appointment at university hospital @ DENTIST / DENTAL SPECIALIST to check that sh*t out. It concerns me greatly!
That's why I am thinking about alternatives ;=)

Also throat pain and sore throat since starting Nortriptyline.

Chronic use of anticholinergics is thought to cause Alzheimer's Dementia. One thing I know for sure, anticholinergics can make Alzheimer's Dementia significantly worse.

>Anticholinergics have cognitive side effects, not just in Alzheimer's. I never noticed it but maybe that's because I am hypercholinergic.
