This is related to dopamine, so I hope you don't mind me jumping in.
Cam,
I HAVE to be on an AP for the at least a few months or much longer. I already have MILD vermicular movements of the tongue from long term use of Melleril several years ago.
A well know pharmacologist that was consulted said I should go back on a typical AP and take 10 mgs of Melatonin to conteract tongue movements.
This was too scary for me, so I opted to go with the more safe AP, seroquel(much less effective, though!).
Do you think the seroquel could turn my mild tongue movements into TD?
And is there any merit to the use of Melatonin? The RDA for TD prevention in this pdocs mind is 10 mgs. This seems like a very high dose, and possibly depressogic, I would persume.
Do you have any thoughts on this???

TIA
Chloe
