Curator's Comment:: Description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8996185 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19337725 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11735643

Amisulpride, a benzamide derivative, shows a unique therapeutic profile being atypical antipsychotic. At low doses, it enhances dopaminergic neurotransmission by preferentially blocking presynaptic dopamine D2/D3 autoreceptors. At higher doses, amisupride antagonises postsynaptic dopamine D2 and D3 receptors, preferentially in the limbic system rather than the striatum, thereby reducing dopaminergic transmission. In addition its antagonism at serotonin 5-HT7 receptors likely underlies the antidepressant actions. Amisulpride is approved for clinical use in treating schizophrenia in a number of European countries and also for treating dysthymia, a mild form of depression, in Italy.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide

For acute psychotic episodes, oral doses between 400 mg/d and 800 mg/d are recommended. In individual cases, the daily dose may be increased up to 1200 mg/d. Doses above 1200 mg/d have not been extensively evaluated for safety and therefore should not be used. Doses above 800 mg/d have not been shown to be superior to lower doses and may increase the incidence of adverse events. No specific titration is required when initiating the treatment with amisulpride. Doses should be adjusted according to individual response.

Route of Administration: Oral

In Vitro Use Guide

In NG108-15 cells stably transfected with the human D3 dopamine receptor amisulpride inhibited quinpirole-elicited mitogenesis with an IC50 value of 22 nM
