REAGILA’s unique mode of action
Cariprazine differs from all available antipsychotics due to its greater affinity for D3 receptors in vivo.
D3 receptors have been theorized to treat hypoactivity symptomology—in particular, cognition, motivation, and reward (1), though EPS side-effects have been seen (2)

Reference
“Cariprazine has unique potent binding for D3 receptors and other unique receptor actions: the low affinities of current antipsychotics for the D3 receptor relative to the very high affinity of dopamine itself for the D3 receptor means that in the living brain, the D3 receptor is not blocked by any antipsychotic other than cariprazine because of the presence of dopamine. That is, because cariprazine is unique among antipsychotics in having a higher potency for the D3 receptor than dopamine itself, the net effect of cariprazine administration is D3 receptor blockade.”
