E92 - (CME) Moving Mountains: Best Practices in the Diagnosis and Management of Tardive Dyskinesia

Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a movement disorder characterized by involuntary movements of the tongue, lips, face, trunk, and extremities that occur in patients treated with dopamine receptor blocking agents (DRBAs). Patients can have symptoms that persist for months, years, or even permanently. Greater awareness about risk factors and which agents may be associated with higher likelihood of developing TD is critical to reduce the prevalence of this disorder. Understanding the most effective novel treatment approaches to TD is also important. In this episode, Dr. Andrew Cutler interviews Dr. Jonathan Meyer about the current best practices in the diagnosis, recognition, and treatment of tardive dyskinesia.  Optional CME Credits / Certificate Instructions: After listening to the podcast, to take the optional posttest and receive CME credit, click https://nei.global/POD20-TD  Learning Objectives: After completing this educational activity, you should be better able to: Identify the clinical presentation of tardive dyskinesia Implement treatment strategies for the management of tardive dyskinesia  Accreditation and Credit Designation Statements: The Neuroscience Education Institute (NEI) is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
