Abstract | Neuroleptic-induced akathisia is a relatively common side effect of neuroleptic medication, characterized by a subjective sense of restlessness; the inability to sit still; and sometimes aggression, anxiety, sleep disturbance, and suicide. The importance of the diagnosis and treatment of neuroleptic-induced akathisia in individuals with mental retardation is discussed. (DB) |
