You wrote,[...the results show that Ads do not cause TD, as stated above...I hope you understand...].
I understand very clearly that Ades can cause tardive dyskinesia, so I do not understand what you are wanting me to understand. If you could post as to what you want me too understnd after you look at the following links, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly. They aree in my understanding classified as Ads and if not, which ones are not?
