Extrapyramidal reactions in Asians

RL Binder and R Levy

The authors studied systematically whether 20 Asian patients were more vulnerable to the acute extrapyramidal side effects of neuroleptics than were 20 black and 40 white patients. They found that extrapyramidal reactions were more frequent in the Asian patients and that the difference was statistically significant.
