PD-168,077 is a drug which acts as a dopamine agonist selective for the D4 subtype,[1][2] which is used for researching the role of D4 receptors in the brain,[3][4][5] particularly relating to learning and memory.[6] The propensity to induce penile erections in rats means it could be used for this also?[7]
