Title: Neuroleptic malignant syndrome associated with prochlorperazine. Author: Manser TJ, Warner JF. Journal: South Med J; 1990 Jan; 83(1):73-4. PubMed ID: 2300839.

The true incidence of prochlorperazine-induced NMS is unknown, and this reaction may be underrecognized in patients who often have other significant medical illnesses.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
