  • Title: Akathisia as a side effect of antipsychotic treatment with quetiapine in a patient with Parkinson's disease.
    Author: Prueter C, Habermeyer B, Norra C, Kosinski CM.
    Journal: Mov Disord; 2003 Jun; 18(6):712-3. PubMed ID: 12784279.
    Abstract:
    Due to its low profile for extrapyramidal side-effects, quetiapine has become an alternative to clozapine in the treatment of dopamimetic psychosis in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). We describe the case of a patient with PD who developed severe akathisia, a common complication with classical antipsychotics, with quetiapine.
