title: Aripiprazole is associated with early onset of Tardive Dyskinesia like presentation in a patient with ABI and psychosis.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  This report describes the early onset Tardive Dyskinesia like presentation during treatment with Aripiprazole.
  
  
  METHODS
  The patient, who had a history of acquired brain injury, was receiving treatment for his psychotic illness characterized by persecutory delusions, second person auditory hallucinations, self-neglect and challenging behaviours. Tardive Dyskinesia is not a well reported side-effect of Aripiprazole.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This report demonstrates onset of this side-effect upon commencement of Aripiprazole and cessation of this side-effect upon termination of this medication. This case report highlights the need for careful monitoring of neurological side-effects in patients with acquired brain injury requiring treatment with anti-psychotic medication.
