[Neuroleptic-induced dysphoric response in non-schizophrenic patients].
In 50 psychiatric inpatients treated with neuroleptics we observed neuroleptic-induced dysphoria in 4% and neuroleptic-induced akathisia in 18% of the cases. In our sample there was no schizophrenics among dysphoric responders. We discuss the implication of the findings and the relationship between dysphoric response and subjective phenomena of akathisia.
