Medications that may produce movement disorders are widely used.
The resulting disorders are often highly disconcerting for the
patient and their relatives, especially when the connection between
medication and disorder is not recognized. However, ascribing an
adverse drug effect to medication exposure is often difficult,
especially when the side effect is rare. Covering various drugs -
including the major classes of medications working primarily on the
brain, specifically antipsychotics and antidepressants - this
all-encompassing review of medication-induced movement disorders
aids early recognition and improved treatment. The problem of what
to do when the offending medication cannot be reduced is also
reviewed. It discusses the best options for evaluation and
treatment, including medical imaging and deep brain stimulation,
and guides the clinician in managing the disorder, making this a
vital reference for medical specialists and consultants in
neurology and neuropharmacology and any clinician seeing patients
on medications crossing the blood-brain barrier.
