Read the full article on Wikipedia“Pizotifen is a serotonin antagonist acting mainly at the 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C receptors. It also has some activity as an antihistamine as well as some anticholinergic activity. The drug binds non-selectively to many targets, including serotonin, dopamine, adrenergic, histamine, and muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Besides its serotonin 5-HT2 receptor antagonism, pizotifen is a low-potency moderate-efficacy partial agonist of the serotonin 5-HT1A receptor.”
