| Valbenazine |
Valbenazine is a vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) inhibitor. The mechanism of action of valbenazine in the treatment of tardive dyskinesia is unknown, but is thought to be mediated through the reversible inhibition of VMAT2, a transporter that regulates monoamine uptake from the cytoplasm to the synaptic vesicle for storage and release. |
