Abstract

The American Psychiatric Association defines Tardive Dyskinesia (TD) as involuntary athetoid or choreiform movements generally of the tongue, lower face, jaw and extremities (may involve the pharyngeal, diaphragmatic, or trunk muscles). Tardive dyskinesia is an iatrogenic condition that arises following extended use of antipsychotic and other dopamine-related medications. It is characterized by repetitive, involuntary muscle movements throughout the body.TD develops in association with the use of neuroleptic medication for at least a few months. Symptoms persist over 4-8 weeks.
