A Case Report of Baclofen- and Clozapine-Induced Dyskinesia: A Movement Disorder.

Movement disorder is a broad term comprising multiple disorders which result in either an excess or a paucity of voluntary and involuntary movements. There are numerous pieces of literature on drug-induced dyskinesia, although the exact mechanism underlying this phenomenon is yet to be understood. Drug-induced movement disorder is a complex and often neglected clinical presentation. There are various interactions of drugs with the dopaminergic, GABAergic, and serotonergic pathways in the body that seem to be the foundation, leading to these movement disorders. Further research and clinical trials are required to understand this clinical entity. Here we present a case report of GABAergic baclofen and an anti-dopaminergic clozapine-induced atypical case of dyskinesia, a severe form of movement disorder in a 69-year-old-male with a past medical history of physiologic tremor and neuropathic pain.
