Objectives: This is one of the first cases reported in the literature of paliperidone-palmitate-induced prolonged dyskinesia. Method: Case report. Results: We report the case of a 49-year-old woman with paranoid schizophrenia who developed orofacial dyskinesia some 4 months after the commencement of paliperidone long-acting injection. Conclusion: This case serves as a clinical reminder that dyskinesia can occur with all antipsychotic medications. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
