↓ Negative symptoms of
schizophrenia
Serotonin is synthesized and
stored in synaptic vesicles
at the nerve terminal
Brexpiprazole is an
antagonist of 5HT2A
receptors. It reduces
negative symptoms of
schizophrenia
Brexpiprazole agonism at
5HT1A receptors are
responsible for treating for
of the cognitive improvement
in schizophrenia

Brexpiprazole is taken
orally and absorbed from the
gastrointestinal tract.
