Antagonists block neurotransmitter receptors, preventing activation and reducing signaling.
Antagonists block neurotransmitter receptors, preventing activation and thus reducing the number of activated receptors.
| Front | Antagonist |
|---|---|
| Back | block receptors so they can't be activated by neurotransmitters. Fewer receptors can be activated |
