| Popis: | There is no proven effective treatment for tardive dyskinesia (TD). However, clozapine has been reported to be effective in suppressing TD symptoms. In this article, we report a TD case who received clozapine. The patient recovered from TD symptoms with a dose of 450 mg/day clozapine. At the end of the first year, clozapine was decreased to a dose of 250 mg/day and TD symptoms re-emerged. |
