abstract：OBJECTIVE:To describe successful treatment of tardive dyskinesia with levetiracetam. BACKGROUND:Tardive dyskinesia is a late-onset movement disorder caused by exposure to dopamine receptor blocking agents, most commonly neuroleptics. Metoclopramide is frequently used to treat gastrointestinal dysmotility. It has antid...
