Metoclopramide-induced tardive dyskinesia in an infant.

摘要

We describe a 1-year-old girl who developed orofaciolingual stereotypy at age 2 months after a 17-day treatment with metoclopramide for gastroesophageal reflux. The stereotypy, documented by sequential videos, persisted for at least 9 months after the drug was discontinued. This patient represents the first documented case of tardive dyskinesia in an infant. We also review previous reports of tardive dyskinesia in children.
