  • Title: Higher frequency of neuroleptic-induced dystonia in mania than in schizophrenia.
    Author: Nasrallah HA, Churchill CM, Hamdan-Allan GA.
    Journal: Am J Psychiatry; 1988 Nov; 145(11):1455-6. PubMed ID: 2903686.
    Abstract:
    In a study of 135 schizophrenic and 46 manic male patients treated with neuroleptics, a significantly higher proportion of the manic patients (26.1%) than of the schizophrenic patients (5.9%) developed acute dystonia. This suggests a higher vulnerability to acute extrapyramidal symptoms in mania.
