A case of akinesia induced by amoxapine
GD Gammon and C Hansen
A depressed woman who was treated with amoxapine developed akinesia, which
was mistaken for depression. This extrapyramidal syndrome has not
previously been linked with this widely used antidepressant, and clinicians
should be aware of the association.
