Very early in the process of diagnosing abnormal involuntary movement (AIM) disorders, one can be rewarded by keeping a high index of suspicion for possible drug-induced causes, not only through a complete list of current medications, but also identification of the drugs the patient used to take and other possible offending medications that might be available from family members and other sources. Among drug-induced movement disorders, antipsychotic drugs and other dopamine receptor blocking agents occupy a central place. Their various acute and tardive motor complications provide the template of this short review. Movement disorders caused by antidepressants, lithium, antiemetics, antiparkinsonian agents, anticonvulsants, calcium channel blockers, sympathomimetics and others are only briefly covered in table form.

Résumé

RÉSUMÉ

L’une des questions fondamentales dans le diagnostic et la prise en charge des troubles du mouvement est de dérminer si une mécation est en cause. Ceci néssite de toujours rester sur ses gardes et d’obtenir non seulement une liste complè de la mécation actuelle mais aussi une histoire pharmacologique déilléde la mécation antéeure ou disponible auprèdes proches ou d’autres sources. Les antipsychotiques et autres bloqueurs des répteurs dopaminergiques occupent une place dominante au sein des troubles du mouvement iatrogès. Les complications motrices tant aiguëque tardives qu’ils engendrent sont au coeur de cette courte revue. Les troubles du mouvement causépar les antidéesseurs, le lithium, les anti-étiques, les anti-parkinsoniens, les anti-éleptiques, les bloqueurs des canaux calciques, les sympathomiméques et divers autres agents sont abordéseulement sous forme de tableau.
