Anti-amyloid beta (Aβ) monoclonal antibody (2) · Anti-CGRP ligand monoclonal antibody (3) · Anti-CGRP receptor monoclonal antibody (1) · Atypical antipsychotic (1) · CGRP receptor antagonist (1) · D2/D3/5HT1A partial agonist (1) · Dual orexin receptor antagonist (DORA) (3) · Gepant (1) · NMDA receptor antagonist + sigma-1 agonist + NDRI (combination) (1) · non-stimulant ADHD agent (1) · PDE5 Inhibitor (3) · Selective 5HT2A inverse agonist (with weaker 5HT2C inverse agonism) (1) · Selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (NRI) with 5HT1A partial agonism (1) · targets protofibrils (1) · targets pyroglutamated Aβ in plaques (1) · the first approved (1)

None (5) · Competitive antagonist at OX1R and OX2R. Faster receptor association/dissociation kinetics than suvorexant (~16 sec dissociation vs ~57 sec) hypothesized to support sleep onset, with sufficient duration for maintenance. (1) · Competitive antagonist at OX1R and OX2R. First-in-class DORA. Receptor dissociation slower than lemborexant or daridorexant. (1) · Humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody binding CGRP peptide; IV infusion enables fastest onset of any CGRP mAb (1) · Humanized IgG2 monoclonal antibody binding both isoforms of CGRP peptide (1) · Humanized IgG2 monoclonal antibody binding the CGRP receptor (not the peptide); blocks CGRP-mediated vasodilation and nociceptive signaling (1) · Humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody binding CGRP peptide; prevents CGRP from activating its receptor (1) · Selective inhibitor of PDE5 with a substantially longer half-life than other PDE5 inhibitors, allowing once-daily continuous dosing. (1) · Selective inhibitor of PDE5. Slightly higher PDE5/PDE6 selectivity vs sildenafil (less visual side effect) but more PDE1 cross-activity (occasional QT effects at high doses). (1) · Selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), preventing cGMP breakdown in vascular smooth muscle. In the corpus cavernosum, potentiates the NO/cGMP cascade triggered by sexual stimulation. (1) · Selective inverse agonist at 5HT2A receptors with weaker activity at 5HT2C. Has no significant dopamine D2 affinity, unique among approved antipsychotics. Inverse agonism (rather than antagonism) reduces constitutive 5HT2A receptor activity below baseline. (1) · Selective NET inhibitor (no significant DAT activity, distinguishes from amphetamine/methylphenidate). Also: 5HT1A receptor partial agonism, 5HT2B and 5HT7 receptor antagonism. The serotonergic actions may underlie better tolerability and possibly different efficacy spectrum than atomoxetine. (1) · Small-molecule CGRP receptor antagonist; intranasal formulation (1)
