A member asked:

If someone has a dystonic reaction to compazine (prochlorperazine) does that mean they're allergic or is that just the result of the dopamine receptor blockade?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Compazine (prochlorperazine): It's not an allergic reaction, it is a side effect as you described in your question.
