  1. Levodopa (L-DOPA)
    • PARKINSONS
    • Increases DA
    • Poor bioavailability (97% metabolized in periphery)
  2. Carbidopa

    • Blocks levodopa conversion into DA in periphery
    • Allows levodopa to pass BBB
    • Carbidopa cannot pass BBB itself, otherwise it would breakdown levodopa there too
  3. Entacapone

    • MAOB selective inhibitor
  5. Rasagiline
    • PARKINSONS
    • MAOB selective inhibitor

    • Blocks serotonin and D2-like Rs
    • Most effective antipsychotic available
  9. Olanzapine
    • SCHIZOPHRENIA
    • 2nd generation anti-psychotic

  16. Naltrexone
    • OPIATE ABUSE
    • Opioid antagonist
    • Generate rapid and severe withdrawal state
    • Anesthesia usually administered too
  17. Buprenorphine
    • OPIATE ABUSE

  21. Naltrexone
    • ALCOHOL ABUSE
    • Opioid receptor antagonist
    • Blocks endogenous reward system
  22. Acamprosate
