Emerging Treatments in Schizophrenia

All currently available medications for schizophrenia derive their efficacy from blockade of dopaminergic receptors, a mechanism of action that leaves many symptoms unresolved and is associated with a significant side effect burden. Here, the experts briefly discuss the challenge of treating schizophrenia with the current medications and explore 4 new drugs (ulotaront, KarXT, CVL-231, and pimavanserin) that approach treatment of schizophrenia using different neural pathways.
