Cariprazine
An atypical antipsychotic that acts as a partial agonist at dopamine D2 and D3 receptors as well as serotonin 5-HT1A receptors. It is approved for the treatment of schizophrenia and acute manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar I disorder. Its relatively high affinity for D3 receptors is thought to contribute to its effects on mood and cognition.
