I wonder why there no RCs that are selective 5HT1A agonist. Judging from the effect of 5ht1a activation, that's as close to the holy grail as it gets.. here is exert from the wiki entry:
5HT1A are classified as "Serenics" or antiagressive like MDMA .. wiki entry
Am I missing something? that's as good as it get. It combines all the "good" of stims + opiods without the "bad". I mean except "inhibition of penile erection" !.. There are literally dozens of all kinds of compounds in literature that are selective 5HT1A agonists.5-HT1A receptor activation has been shown to increase dopamine release in the medial prefrontal cortex, striatum, and hippocampus, and may be useful for improving the symptoms of schizophrenia and Parkinson's diseas ...
Other effects of 5-HT1A activation that have been observed in scientific research include
- Decreased aggression[47][48]
- Increased sociability[30]
- Decreased impulsivity[49]
- Inhibition of drug-seeking behavior[50][51][52]
- Facilitation of sex drive and arousal[53][54]
- Inhibition of penile erection[55][56]
- Diminished food intake[57]
- Prolongation of REM sleep latency[58][59]
- Reversal of opioid-induced respiratory depression[60]
5HT1A are classified as "Serenics" or antiagressive like MDMA .. wiki entry
sorry for the long quoteA serenic, or antiaggressive agent, is a type of drug which reduces the capacity for irritability and aggression Examples
The recreational drug MDMA ("ecstasy") and a variety of related drugs have been described as empathogen-entactogens, or simply as entactogens.[2] These agents possess serenic and empathy-increasing properties in addition to their euphoriant effects, and have been associated with increased sociability, friendliness, and feelings of closeness to others as well as emotional empathy and prosocial behavior.[3][4] The entactogenic effects of these drugs are thought to be related to their ability to temporarily increase the levels of certain brain chemicals, including serotonin,[5] dopamine, and, particularly, oxytocin.[3][6][7] Certain other serotonergic drugs, such as 5-HT1A receptor agonists, also increase oxytocin levels and may possess serenic properties as well.[8] The phenylpiperazine mixed 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B receptor agonists eltoprazine, fluprazine, and batoprazine have been described based on animal research as serenics.[9]
