Tardive syndromes are drug-induced hyperkinetic movement disorders that occur as a consequence of dopamine D2 receptor antagonism/blockade. There are several types, including classical tardive dyskinesia, tardive dystonia, tardive tics, tardive myoclonus, and tardive tremor, and it is important to the management of these disorders that the type of movement disorder induced is identified. Tardive syndromes can occur with all antipsychotic drugs, including so-called atypical drugs. Patients taking these drugs should be evaluated frequently for side effects. Evaluating the nature of the movement (i.e., chorea or dystonia) is important because treatment options can differ according to the type of dyskinesia present.
