Guest guest Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Has anyone had experience with Tardive Dyskinesia? We noticed our son, Rusty, having some pretty interesting facial expressions that increasingly have gotten worse, and found out this afternoon that he has TD. He was on Risperdal for only about 3 months, is now on Abilify, and the dr. thinks this is what might have caused it. We were weaning him off Risperdal while adding Abilify... his behavior has been much better. If it isn't one thing with our great kids, it's something else! He is now totally off Risperdal. HELP.... any words of wisdom or experience would be appreciated. They said it could get better off meds, but it may also get worse. I'd like to hear from someone who has experienced this and what you did. Thanks.
