Hi,
Does anyone know if the risk for developing TD and parkinsonism is lower with sulpiride (low dose) in comparison with other APs? I was told this drug is different and would like to know how.
Is it also a phenothiazine?Thanks,
Kari.

Sulpiride is a knarly strong dopamine blocker.
So is the similar amisulpride.I have first hand experience.
I tried to access some of my old posts here - my access was blocked... don't know why.
