Effect of 5-HT2A receptor antagonism on levels of D2/3 receptor occupancy and adverse behavioral side-effects induced by haloperidol: a SPECT imaging study in the rat

Abstract Several studies suggested that 5-HT2A receptor (5-HT2AR) blockade may provide a more favorable efficacy and side-effect profile to antipsychotic treatment. We hypothesized that a combined haloperidol (a D2/3 receptor (D2/3R) antagonist) and MDL-100,907 (a 5-HT2AR antagonist) treatment would...
