drug action
Dosulepin Serotonin antagonist Action PathwayHomo sapiens
Dosulepin is indicated in the treatment of symptoms of depressive illness, especially where an anti-anxiety effect is required. Dosulepin displays affinity towards α2-adrenoceptors and to a lesser extent, α1-adrenoceptors. Inhibition of presynaptic α2-adrenoceptors by dosulepin facilitates noradrenaline release and further potentiates the antidepressant effects. It also downregulates central β-adrenoceptors by causing a decline in the number of receptors and reduces noradrenaline-induced cyclic AMP formation. Dosulepin binds to 5HT1A and 5HT2A receptors in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus as an antagonist. 5HT1A receptors are autoreceptors that inhibit 5HT release and 5HT2A receptors are Gi/Go-coupled receptors that reduces dopamine release upon activation. Antagonism at 5HT2A receptors may also improve sleep patterns. Dosulepin also binds to muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and causes antimuscarinic side effects such as dry mouth. By acting as an antagonist at histamine type 1 (H1) receptors, dosulepin mediates a sedative effect.

drug action
Donepezil Action PathwayHomo sapiens
Donepezil is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor also known as Adlarity, Aricept and Namzaric, that is used in the treatment of Alzheimer's Disease and dementia. It is administered orally or transdermally, sometimes in combination with memantine in order to treat moderate to severe dementia. Donepezil selectively inhibits the acetylcholinesterase enzyme, by doing so it is believed to enhance cholinergic transmission to relieve the symptoms of Alzheimer's and dementia. Normally acetylcholinesterase breaks down acetylcholine, this inhibited its enhances cholinergic transmission. Donepezil goes through first-pass metabolism by CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 into metabolites which can be further broken down by dealkylation, hydroxylation, oxidation, hydrolysis and glucuronidation.

drug action
Dolasetron Serotonin antagonist Action PathwayHomo sapiens
Dolasetron is a selective serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist. In vivo, the drug is rapidly converted into its major active metabolite, hydrodolasetron, which seems to be largely responsible for the drug's pharmacological activity. The antiemetic activity of the drug is brought about through the inhibition of 5-HT3 receptors present both centrally (medullary chemoreceptor zone) and peripherally (GI tract). This inhibition of 5-HT3 receptors in turn inhibits the visceral afferent stimulation of the vomiting center, likely indirectly at the level of the area postrema, as well as through direct inhibition of serotonin activity within the area postrema and the chemoreceptor trigger zone.
