report following paroxetine treatment.

Hospital, Boston 02114, USA.
Although akathisia is most commonly
associated with neuroleptic medication, few cases of paroxetine-induced
akathisia have been reported. A review of the authors' charts (C.F.B.,
A.N., S.N.G., and G.S.S.) was conducted to determine an estimated
incidence for paroxetine-induced akathisia. Three cases of akathisia
were reported in 67 patients treated with paroxetine. A case of
akathisia secondary to paroxetine in an 18-year-old female is presented.
Given the potential untoward effects of this syndrome, early diagnosis
is essential. Clinical presentations and differential diagnoses are
discussed.
