A probable case of movement disorder (Tardive dyskinesia) due to duloxetine treatment. Agri. 2018 Oct;30(4):199-201 Authors: Yılmaz R, Üstün D, Tuncer Uzun S, Reisli R, Türk Ş Abstract Tardive dyskinesia and tardive dystonia are caused by dopamine receptor blocking agents, mostly antipsychotics and sometimes antidepressants or calcium channel blockers. Duloxetine is a serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor used in the treatment of diabetic neuropathic pain and fibromyalgia, as well as major depression. In this case, we aimed to discuss the tardive dyskinesia-like appearance of a patient using duloxetine due to fibromyalgia. PMID: 30403275 [PubMed - in process]
