CNS Approved 2023-04-28

UZEDY is indicated for the treatment of Schizophrenia; Bipolar Disorder.

Source: FDA Label • Teva • Atypical Antipsychotic

How UZEDY Works

The exact mechanism of action of UZEDY is not fully established, but its therapeutic activity is thought to be mediated through the antagonism of dopamine Type 2 (D2) and serotonin Type 2 (5HT2) receptors. The clinical effect results from the combined concentrations of the drug and its major metabolite, 9-hydroxyrisperidone. Additionally, the drug's interaction with receptors other than D2 and 5HT2 may contribute to its overall effects.
