A case of paliperidone-palmitate-induced tardive dyskinesia.
OBJECTIVE
This is one of the first cases reported in the literature of paliperidone-palmitate-induced prolonged dyskinesia.


METHODS
Case report.


RESULTS
We report the case of a 49-year-old woman with paranoid schizophrenia who developed orofacial dyskinesia some 4 months after the commencement of paliperidone long-acting injection.


CONCLUSIONS
This case serves as a clinical reminder that dyskinesia can occur with all antipsychotic medications.
