Tardive dyskinesia
Primary prevention of TD by using the lowest effective dose of neuroleptic for the shortest period of time is recommended.
Recently administration of branched chain amino acids has been reported to markedly reduce the movements of TD.
Other treatments include vitamin E, levodopa, benzodiazepines, botulinum toxin, reserpine, tetrabenazine, and dopamine-depleting agents. Ondansetron, a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 antagonist, has helped some individuals with TD. Discontinuation of treatment with anticholinergics may relieve TD. A controversial strategy to treat TD is continuing and/or increasing the dose of the dopamine antagonist.
For tardive tics, remove the causative neuroleptic if possible. If the patient cannot tolerate absence of the neuroleptic, substitute an atypical neuroleptic. Pimozide, clonidine, and haloperidol can be helpful in some patients with tardive tics.
Clozapine has treated tardive tremor successfully. Propanolol is useful for tardive akathisia. Clonazepam has been reported to successfully alleviate the symptoms of tardive dyskinesia as well as spontaneous oral dyskinesia.

(right on, also psychosocial interventions will help)
2) Pick disease
I think you leave it alone? (Kind of like this, behavior management)
3) Dystonia from anti-psychotics
With anticholinergics. Same as you treat other EPS. (Right on, also diphenhydramine can help)
4) Neruoleptic malignant sydorme
Dantrolene? (Also bromocriptine)
5) Catatonia in shcizophreniz or other psychotic disorders
For negative symptoms give olenzapine (Also BZs or ECT)
6) Maligant hyperthermia
Dantrolene (Right)
Tardive dyskinesia
cant do much about it (I think so too; let's try to understand and remember the reply from Bozhenka---- what Bozhenka wrote seems quite new to me, agree? :o
