|April 1, 1978
Abstract:
The case of a 23-year-old patient treated with haloperidol, imipramine, and benztropine mesylate is presented to illustrate an unusually severe reaction to the abrupt cessation of neuroleptic medication. In addition to the description of the withdrawal reaction, a possible explanation of the clinical phenomenon is offered.
