It is unclear if dopamine is safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. [4] At low doses dopamine mainly triggers dopamine receptors and β1-adrenergic receptors while at high doses it works via α-adrenergic receptors. [4] Dopamine was first synthesized in a laboratory in 1910 by George Barger and James Ewens in England. [8]
Dopamine therapy is the regulation of levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine through the use of either agonists, or antagonists; and has been used in the treatment of disorders characterized by a dopamine imbalance. Dopamine replacement therapy (DRT) is an effective treatment for patients with decreased levels of dopamine.
[citation needed] Although cabergoline is commonly described principally as a D 2 receptor agonist, it also possesses significant affinity for the dopamine D 3, and D 4, serotonin 5-HT 1A, 5-HT 2A, 5-HT 2B, and 5-HT 2C, and α 2-adrenergic receptors, as well as moderate/low affinity for the dopamine D 1, serotonin 5-HT 7, and α 1-adrenergic ...
A dopamine reuptake inhibitor (DRI) is a class of drug which acts as a reuptake inhibitor of the monoamine neurotransmitter dopamine by blocking the action of the dopamine transporter (DAT). Reuptake inhibition is achieved when extracellular dopamine not absorbed by the postsynaptic neuron is blocked from re-entering the presynaptic neuron.

A single 20 mg oral dose of domperidone has been found to increase mean serum prolactin levels (measured 90 minutes post-administration) in non-lactating women from 8.1 ng/mL to 110.9 ng/mL (a 13.7-fold increase).
Dopamine receptor flow chart. Dopamine receptors are all G protein–coupled receptors, and are divided into two classes based on which G-protein they are coupled to. [1] The D 1-like class of dopamine receptors is coupled to Gα s/olf and stimulates adenylate cyclase production, whereas the D 2-like class is coupled to Gα i/o and thus inhibits adenylate cyclase production.
