TARDIVE DYSKINESIA: Use of anti-psychotics can cause tardive dyskinesia which mimics Parkinson's. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Ingrezza (valbenazine) capsules to treat adults with tardive dyskinesia. This is the first drug approved by the FDA for this condition. Please consult with a Psychiatrist to obtain a prescription for this medication.
