Overview

Aripiprazole works by acting on neurotransmitters in the brain, especially dopamine and serotonin, which play a key role in regulating mood, decision-making, perception, and behaviour. Because of its unique mechanism as a partial dopamine agonist, it stabilizes both excessive and insufficient dopamine activity, making it effective in a wide range of psychiatric conditions.
