These central nervous system side-effects are known, so-called extra pyramidal side effects. The best way to address this is by taking a drug holiday , stopping for three months and the going back onto the drug if necessary . In the interim alternative drugs may be used to reduce the symptoms. Please consult your Neurologist to help you with a treatment plan.
