Mechanism: Serotonin-Dopamine Activity Modulator (SDAM)
Expert: Partial agonist at dopamine D2/D3 and serotonin 5-HT1A receptors with antagonism at 5-HT2A receptors. Stabilizes dopaminergic and serotonergic neurotransmission by acting as a functional agonist in hypodopaminergic states and antagonist in hyperdopaminergic states.
Everyday: Fine-tunes dopamine and serotonin signals in the brain — like a thermostat that adjusts these chemical messengers up or down depending on what the brain needs, rather than simply turning them on or off.
