Overview of the drug development pipeline for tardive dyskinesia
It has been observed that a major cause of tardive dyskinesia is certain antipsychotic medications that are generally prescribed for conditions such as schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorders. The common symptoms of tardive dyskinesia are characterized by repetitive, involuntary, and jerking movements in the face, neck, and tongue. Symptoms of tardive dyskinesia also include lip smacking, puckering, and pursuing, grimacing, rapid eye blinking, and repetitive chewing. Tardive dyskinesia is a socially stigmatizing long-term disorder where the muscle movements of the patient get out of control, especially in the face, neck, and tongue. The symptoms of tardive dyskinesia can be very troubling for the patients and family members. The use of neuroleptic drugs is also a primary cause of tardive dyskinesia. Several public and private companies are focused on the development of drug molecules for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia. Monotherapy is emerging as the most efficient approach for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia.
According to this pipeline analysis report, all the drug molecules in the pipeline are being developed for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia. Our market research analysts have also identified that most of these molecules are in the pre-clinical development stage and a considerable number of molecules have been discontinued from development.
