This study was performed to determine whether in vitro affinities of currently available antipsychotics toward dopamine or other neuronal receptor systems are associated with their in vivo incidence of central and peripheral adverse drug reactions (ADRs).
Correlations between in vitro affinity of antipsychotics to various central neurotransmitter receptors and clinical incidence of their adverse drug reactions.
