Jaw Subluxation as a Complication of Tardive Dyskinesia
Published on: 15th November, 2024
Tardive Dyskinesia (TD) is an iatrogenic complication caused by antipsychotic agents and rarely by other anti-depressive/antiepileptic or anti-nausea medication. It is mostly a benign condition with implications regarding esthetic issues but it can also impact social and emotional well-being. We are reporting a case in which severe TD ensued in an elderly lady with newly diagnosed dementia, who presented to the psychiatric ER with a Capgras syndrome and paranoia accompanied by behavioral disturbances. She was treated with 4 consecutive antipsychotic agents (haloperidol, brexiprazole, risperidone, and olanzapine) due to unresponsive psychosis in conjunction with biperiden and developed a severe case of TD, which was complicated by two successive episodes of jaw subluxation. In spite of the good outcome following the reduction of the subluxation, we emphasize the danger of this rare painful, and bothersome side-effect and recommend how to pharmacologically deal with the TD setting in which it occurred.
