Pharmacology:
Sertindole is an atypical antipsychotic at least as effective as haloperidol and risperidone in the treatment of neuroleptic-responsive schizophrenia.

Mechanism of Action: Sertindole is an antipsychotic drug with affinity for dopamine D2, serotonin 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C, and alpha1-adrenoreceptors. Preclinical studies suggest that sertindole acts preferentially on limbic and cortical dopaminergic neurons and clinical trials have confirmed that sertindole is effective at a low dopamine D2 occupancy level.
Absorption: Orally available.
Biotransformation: Hepatic. Sertindole is metabolized by cytochrome P450 isoenzymes CYP 2D6 and CYP 3A4.
Half Life: 3 days
