Prior to taking the drug, hears voices and has irrational thoughts.

2
00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:15.200

and in time, stops hearing voices and their thoughts are much more rational.

00:00:25.750 --> 00:00:35.000
In the brain, the drug binds to dopamine receptors but does not cause the postsynaptic neuron to fire.

5
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:40.500
As a result they block the natural dopamine from binding.

00:00:40.500 --> 00:00:51.000
Current research suggest that the most important brain region for these effects it ventral tegmental area.
