The article focuses on the intravenous diazepam in drug-induced dystonic reactions. Acute dystonic reactions including oculogyric crises were once thought to be pathognomonic of encephalitis lethargica but the clinical use of the phenothiazines has led to the recognition that similar symptoms can be produced by drugs. The dystonic postures may present in different ways which is common in spasm of muscles of the neck. Oculogyric crises happen either in isolation or in combination with other forms of dystonia. |
