Changing epidemiology of tardive dyskinesia: an overview

Abstract: Dyskinesia is found significantly more often among neuroleptic-treated psychiatric patients than among non-neuroleptic-treated patients. The epidemiology of tardive dyskinesia is changing; its reported prevalence among neuroleptic-treated psychiatric inpatients has been progressively rising and has reached 25% during the past five years. The prevalence of persistent tardive dyskinesia that may be attributable to neuroleptics is about 13%. Tardive dyskinesia is not restricted to old, brain-damaged inpatients bu… Show more

“…The allele frequencies found in our sample were consistent with those reported previously for European Caucasians (Sachse et al, 1997). The prevalence of TD in our sample is 19% (13/70) which is also consistent with other studies (Jeste and Wyatt, 1981; Kane and Smith, 1982). …”

“…The prevalence of TD from antipsychotic treatment TD is approximately 20% (Kane and Smith, 1982). Other studies have shown point-prevalence of 5–45% in psychiatric inpatients and 30% among psychiatric outpatients (Jeste and Wyatt, 1981). …”

“…Spontaneous dyskinesias, unrelated to neurological conditions, are also known to occur in patients with mental illness. [ 9 ] However, the temporal association of the onset of dyskinesia with antipsychotic administration inclines us to think otherwise. For the same reason, and because of the absence of new stressors, and typical site and character of abnormal movements, dissociative symptoms were ruled out.…”
