title: Meige syndrome with apraxia of lid opening after the discontinuation of sulpiride treatment.
abstract: We report a case of Meige syndrome with apraxia of lid opening that lasted for about seven months after discontinuation of sulpiride treatment. To our knowledge, this is the first report demonstrating that Meige syndrome with apraxia of lid opening is induced by sulpiride, and that the condition persists.
