Product Information

• Name: Lurasidone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Lurasidone is an atypical antipsychotic medication, which is a synthetic compound developed through pharmaceutical chemical synthesis. It functions primarily as a dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT2A receptor antagonist, while also exhibiting partial agonism at certain serotonin receptors and antagonism at other neurotransmitter sites such as alpha-2 adrenergic receptors.Lurasidone is widely utilized in the medical field for the treatment of psychiatric disorders, notably schizophrenia and bipolar depression. Its multifaceted receptor activity profile helps in modulating neurotransmission imbalances associated with these conditions. By targeting specific neural pathways, lurasidone can effectively alleviate symptoms of psychosis, improve mood stability, and enhance overall cognitive function in patients. Researchers and clinicians value lurasidone for its efficacy in symptom management alongside a favorable side effect profile compared to older antipsychotics. Its pharmacological properties make it an important tool in advancing therapeutic approaches for complex psychiatric disorders.
