ABSTRACT
Here, authors report on an interesting case of an adolescent with a diagnosis of schizo-affective disorder, maintained on LAI paliperidone palmitate that developed an unusual dystonic reaction in form of anismus that masquerade as constipation and faecal impaction. To our knowledge, this is one of the earliest reports of antipsychotic-induced anismus notably in adolescent population. Clinicians should be mindful of unusual forms of dyskinesias that might be associated with high-potency antipsychotic use.
