  • Title: Drug-induced and psychogenic resting suprahyoid neck and tongue tremors.
    Author: Baik JS, Lyoo CH, Lee JH, Lee MS.
    Journal: Mov Disord; 2008 Apr 15; 23(5):746-8. PubMed ID: 18186115.
    Abstract:
    We describe three patients who presented with 4 to 5 Hz tremors of the suprahyoid region of the neck. Two developed their tremors in association with levosulpiride treatment. When they opened their mouths, the neck tremors disappeared; no tongue tremors were observed. However, a videofluoroscopic examination showed the presence of tongue tremors at rest. The remaining patient had a psychogenic tremor.
