      Drug Name Aripiprazole Opicapone
      Mechanism 1 CNS depression effects CNS depression effects
      Key Mechanism Factor 1
Factor Name CNS depression effects
Factor Description CNS depressants are drugs that inhibit or suppress brain activity and can reduce mental and physical processes. Excessive CNS depression can lead to decreased heart rate, slow breathing (less than 10 breaths per minute), extreme confusion or loss of memory, nausea and vomiting, poor judgment, blue lips or fingertips, irritability and aggression, and clammy or cold skin.

Gene Name DRD2
Uniprot ID DRD2_HUMAN
KEGG Pathway hsa:1813
Protein Family G-protein coupled receptor 1 family
Protein Function
Dopamine receptor whose activity is mediated by G proteins which inhibit adenylyl cyclase (PubMed:21645528). Positively regulates postnatal regression of retinal hyaloid vessels via suppression of VEGFR2/KDR activity, downstream of OPN5 (By similarity).

Recommended Action
      Management Concomitant use of dopaminergic drugs with antidopaminergic agents should generally be avoided. If coadministration is necessary, patients should be alerted to the possibility of excessive drowsiness and monitored for potentially diminished therapeutic response to both treatments. Patients treated for Parkinson's disease should generally avoid antidopaminergic agents, particularly phenothiazines and older neuroleptic agents, since these agents may cause extrapyramidal reactions and exacerbate the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Likewise, patients with a major psychotic disorder should ordinarily not be treated with dopaminergic drugs because of the risk of exacerbating the psychosis with an increase in central dopaminergic tone.
