Hi Ed.

> Donepezil (Aricept) is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. There are case reports of its use in tardive dyskinesia. I have no idea how it might affect akathisia. I have a theory that it might help TD patient whose symptoms are aggravated by anticholinergics.

This is very interesting.

I didn't know that anticholinergics could make TD worse.
