| description | Drug-induced dyskinesia is an involuntary muscle movement caused by various dopamine receptor-blocking drug exposure, such as antipsychotics, antidepressants,
and antiemetics. Causative drug removal is the main treatment for drug-induced
dyskinesia whenever possible because its pathophysiology lacks a universally accepted mechanism; however, the symptoms can persist for years or decades in
many patients even after causative drug removal. Herein, we present a case of
drug-induced dyskinesia in a 61-year-old female patient who consumed medication for approximately 10 years for her depression, anxiety, and insomnia. Cervical
and facial dyskinesia was suggested to be related to perphenazine and levosulpiride administration. The patient received acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, herbal
medicine, and chuna treatment for 81 days during hospitalization. The symptoms
were evaluated using the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale, Toronto Western
Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale, Tsui’s score, and Numeric Rating Scale, which
revealed remarkable improvement, suggesting the effectiveness of combined Korean medicine for drug-induced dyskinesia. |
