Ingrezza is the brand name of a medicine whose active ingredient is valbenazine. Ingrezza reduces the release of certain neurotransmitters (notably dopamine) in nerve endings, which helps normalize dopamine signaling. So it’s a dopamine antagonist, commonly used to resolve fluency issues in most people who stutter.
