baclofen and Chorea

baclofen has been researched along with Chorea in 7 studies

Chorea: Involuntary, forcible, rapid, jerky movements that may be subtle or become confluent, markedly altering normal patterns of movement. Hypotonia and pendular reflexes are often associated. Conditions which feature recurrent or persistent episodes of chorea as a primary manifestation of disease are referred to as CHOREATIC DISORDERS. Chorea is also a frequent manifestation of BASAL GANGLIA DISEASES.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Children with primary dystonia and those with tremor can be treated with deep brain stimulation of the internal globus pallidus and thalamus, respectively."2.42Neurosurgical treatment of spasticity and other pediatric movement disorders. ( Albright, AL, 2003)
" The trouble occurs or is worsened when neuroleptics are withdrawn and is reduced when dosage is increased; it responds to the theoretical model of denervation supersensitivity."2.36[Tardive dyskinesia induced by neuroleptics. A review of the literature]. ( Cottereau, MJ; Deniker, P; Diepart, E, 1979)
