Lurasidone is a serotonin and dopamine receptor antagonist, one of the most recently available antipsychotics in the Czech Republic.

This is evidenced by the case report below, which describes a good response to lurasidone in a patient with paranoid schizophrenia and resistance to treatment, including electroconvulsive therapy.
