A 40 y/o woman with chronic schizophrenia has been taking an antipsychotic medication for 6 years.Recently, she has begun to show involuntary lip smacking and chewing movements of her mouth and tongue. What type of antipsychotic agent has this patient been taking, and what action should the physician take?
