title: Tardive dystonia in Chinese.
abstract: Three Chinese patients with the under-recognized condition of tardive dystonia are described. This is a physically and socially handicapping complication of neuroleptic treatment. A past history of acute dystonia does not appear to predict the future development of tardive dystonia. The need for judicious indication of neuroleptics is emphasised.
