title: The diagnosis of rapid abnormal involuntary movements associated with fluphenazine decanoate.
abstract: Three patients with low grade tardive dyskinesia developed an acute episode of abnormal involuntary movements after a single injection of fluphenazine decanoate. All three patients had their symptoms relieved after treatment with antiparkinsonian medication. The differential diagnosis of these movements is discussed, and a possible animal model for this phenomenon is described.
