Tardive dyskinesia and tardive dystonia are caused by dopamine receptor blocking agents, mostly antipsychotics and sometimes antidepressants or calcium channel blockers. Duloxetine-related tardive syndrome is rarely reported in the literature. We report one case of tardive dystonia and tardive dyskinesia occurring in a 58-year-old female with major depressive disorder, who developed distressing oral dyskinesia, mandibular dystonia with trismus and dystonia over left neck after treatment of duloxetine (30-60 mg per day) for 18 months. Despite discontinuation of duloxetine, she only obtained partial remission. Even though this association has been rarely reported, duloxetine may pose a potential risk of inducing tardive syndrome. Clinicians should cautiously detect early signs of movement abnormality when prescribing antidepressants.

Duloxetine is a balanced and potent serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor which is known to be effective in depression and anxiety disorders. The common adverse effects include dry mouth, nausea, insomnia, somnolence, dizziness and constipation. Reported adverse effects of the extra pyramidal symptoms (EPS) are rare. In this case, a patient who suffered from acute dystonia, after only one dose of 30 mg duloxetine is presented.

Tardive dyskinesia and tardive dystonia are caused by dopamine receptor blocking agents, mostly antipsychotics and sometimes antidepressants or calcium channel blockers. Duloxetine is a serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor used in the treatment of diabetic neuropathic pain and fibromyalgia, as well as major depression. In this case, we aimed to discuss the tardive dyskinesia-like appearance of a patient using duloxetine due to fibromyalgia.
