Antidepressant-induced Paradoxical Anxiety, Akathisia, and Complex Vocal Tics in a Patient with Panic Disorder and Crohn's Disease: A Case Report

CONCLUSION: Antidepressant-induced akathisia and tics are often distressing both to the patient and their loved ones, and they can be very puzzling to the clinician. It is important for clinicians to recognise that, although rare, antidepressants can have the adverse effects of akathisia and tics in patients. When these symptoms arise, it should prompt immediate discontinuation of the offending antidepressant.PMID:38251693 | DOI:10.2174/0115748863270093231114075934
