  • Title: [Risk factors and prevention of tardive dyskinesias].
    Author: Wolf MA, Wertenschlag N.
    Journal: Can J Psychiatry; 1989 Apr; 34(3):177-81. PubMed ID: 2566366.
    Abstract:
    Tardive dyskinesia is a frequent complication of a neuroleptic treatment. The physiopathology is unclear and the curative treatments inadequate. This explains the necessity for preventive measures at three levels: the prescription of neuroleptics, the evaluation of risk factors and early diagnosis. An analysis of epidemiological studies allows the evaluation of risk factors published in literature.
