1.Extrapyramidal Reactions :
(1) Parkinsons syndrome;
(2) Akathisia( );
(3) Dystonic reactions ( )
These acute extrapyramidal reaction can be treated
with antimuscarinic drugs, artane.
(4) Tardive dyskinesia
It has been proposed that it is caused by a relative
cholinergic deficiency secondary to supersensitivity
of dopamine receptors.
