Medicine Information

About Soltus 100 mg Tablet:

Soltus 100 mg tablet is used for the treatment of schizophrenia.

Each uncoated Soltus 100 mg tablet contains Amisulpride 100 mg and Excipients q.s.

Amisulpride is a selective dopamine D2 and D3 receptor antagonist. It has high preferential activity towards dopamine receptors, leading to a lower risk of extrapyramidal side effects than other atypical antipsychotic agents. At low doses it preferentially blocks pre-synaptic D2/D3 receptors, producing dopamine release responsible for its disinhibitory effects. This pharmacological profile explains the clinical efficacy of Amisulpride against both negative and positive symptoms of schizophrenia.
