The D2 partial agonism is the "dopamine system stabilizer" rationale: in hyperdopaminergic states (psychosis, mania) aripiprazole functions as a partial antagonist; in hypodopaminergic states (prefrontal cortex, MDD adjunct) it functions as a partial agonist.</vote> '''Akathisia''' is the most common dose-limiting adverse effect, particularly with the MDD-adjunct dose range. Lower weight gain, lower metabolic burden, and lower prolactin elevation than most second-generation neuroleptics, the principal pharmacological selling points.
