What is Tardive Dyskinesia?

Tip for best answer: M$0.25
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

It's an involuntary contraction of muscles. It looks like the person is in pain sometimes and, sometimes, they are in pain. Different individuals have different symptoms.

I had a client with TD. Some psychotropic drugs can have a side-effect of Tardive Dyskineasia.

If you know someone with TD, I highly recommend opening a dialog and discussing it. The psychological effects of TD are quite serious as well.

Kinetics is movement or motion, the prefix "Dys" means abnormal and Tardive means "late-occurring". Therefore it means abnormal movements that occur over time.

For example:
Tardive Dyskinesia is a side-effect of some psychological drugs.

Here is the definition from http://www.definr.com:
involuntary rolling of the tongue and twitching of the face or trunk or limbs; often occurs in patients with parkinsonism who are treated with phenothiazine
source(s):
