title: Tardive dystonia and ceruletide effects: case report.
abstract: 1. One schizophrenic patient with drug-induced tardive dystonia was treated with ceruletide. 2. After the injection, dystonia showed a tendency toward rapid amelioration in 3 days; meanwhile, however, mental manifestations became exacerbated within 3 weeks. 3. We discuss some aspects of the effects of ceruletide.
