Abstract:
Tiapridal was given to twenty-four patients suffering from dyskinesias. Therapeutic efficacity seems to the etiology. Not any fonctitonal improvement was observed in parkinsonism with dyskinesia consecutive to Dopa therapy. On the other hand a good efficacity was found in the treatment of choreas with a quite good tolerance; the functional result will depend of the evolutive state of the disease.
Insights
Tiapridal showed effectiveness in treating chorea but not in Dopa-induced parkinsonism with dyskinesia. Patient outcomes for chorea depend on disease progression, with good tolerance observed.
