Rabbit Syndrome

Rabbit Syndrome

Rabbit syndrome is a rest tremor of the perioral and nasal muscles, which may occur with antipsychotic drug therapy and in idiopathic Parkinson’s disease. It is therefore presumably related to dopamine deficiency. Drug-induced rabbit syndrome may remit with drug withdrawal.
