> Would you think that targeting the D4 is more acceptable if prone to psychotic symptoms than D2? I must say, mood wise I really need dopamine, but thoght wise, not at all.
I honestly can't answer absolutely, so ymmv, but I have read on some schizophrenia support websites, that some schizophrenics take very small amounts of some stimulants (in particular, amphetamine/vyvanse..it apparently binds less tighter than ritalin to dopamine receptors) to offset a bit of the effects of antipsychotics.
But, caution, of course.
