Is Risperdal dopaminergic like Amisulpride?

Posted by btnd on September 29, 2003, at 2:34:16

Both Risperdal and Amisulpride are D2 antagonists. Amisulpride at lower doses (25-100mg) increases presynaptic dopamine. But what is the mechanism of action of Risperdal?
The reason I'm asking is because Amisulpride has been simply wonderful for my anxiety/social phobia, and my brother, who shows pretty much same symptoms as me, has been prescribed Risperdal. Would it help his social phobia/anxiety/slight dysthymia?
