Tardive dyskinesia

My right side started twitching mouth and eyes on haldol.

Contact your psychiatrist immediately @roxanna.
TD is a major issue with Haldol.
You don’t want to mess with it.

Article says they may treat it with clozaril is that the drug they blood test you every btwo weeks or something?

I forgot to take a benztropine. Now this.

Should I still go to the er?

Was it one time?
How long did it last?
Has it stopped?

It started with the haldol 10mg day and then10 mg at night.with the addition of Prozac 40mg.

I haven’t taken the benztropine yet but may

I don’t want to go to the hospital

Maybe you should take the benztropine as prescribed.

If the twitching is continuous then I would go the ER.
Also contact your doctor just the same.

I forgot benztropine. To take it. I’m going to the er anyway. Just waiting to get temp outside to go down a little.
