|
|
Objectives: The objective of this study was to report a clinical case that suggests potential beneficial effects of Korean medicine therapy for the treatment of levosulpiride-induced acute dyskinesia.
Methods: A patient having drug-induced acute dyskinesia was given a series of Korean medicine therapy treatments, including administration of the herbal medicine Chengsimyeonja-tang-gamibang, acupuncture, electroacupuncture, pharmacopuncture, and moxibustion over the 17 days of the hospitalization period. During the therapy, the progression of the disease was measured by the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS).
Results: During the therapy, the remission of orofacial dyskinesia and improvement of AIMS scores were observed.
Conclusion: Korean medicine therapy has potential benefits for the treatment of drug-induced acute dyskinesia.
