How it works

The mechanism of action of milsaperidone in the treatment of schizophrenia in adults and the acute treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar I disorder in adults is unknown. However, the efficacy of milsaperidone in these conditions could be mediated through a combination of dopamine type 2 (D 2 ) and serotonin type 2 (5-HT 2 ) antagonism. Milsaperidone and iloperidone rapidly interconvert in vivo. Milsaperidone has an in vitro receptor binding profile similar to iloperidone.
