A 40-year-old female suffering with psychosis NOS since 19 years presented with recurrence of positive symptoms in the form of delusion of persecution, ideas of grandiosity since last 3 months. She was treated with amisulpride up to 400 mg/day and developed involuntary oro-buccal-lingual movement within 2 months of amisulpride therapy. Amisulpride an atypical antipsychotic can lead to the development of TD in patient who already received amisulpride for many years in the past. Reexposure with amisulpride can lead to early onset of TD due to blockade of already unregulated postsynaptic supersensitive dopamine receptors.
