  • Title: Withdrawal akathisia: case reports and a proposed classification of chronic akathisia.
    Author: Lang AE.
    Journal: Mov Disord; 1994 Mar; 9(2):188-92. PubMed ID: 8196681.
    Abstract:
    Two patients with akathisia developing only after neuroleptic dosage reduction or withdrawal are described. The literature dealing with tardive or chronic akathisia is reviewed with an emphasis on the existence of variants including the occurrence of symptoms upon withdrawal of the causative drug. A classification of tardive or chronic akathisia syndrome is proposed.
