The total phenothiazine intake and incidence of brain damage were estimated in 21 elderly chronic psychiatric female patients with persistent oral dyskinesia and in a control group of 21 patients matched for sex, age, type and length of illness. The total phenothiazine intake was significantly greater in the dyskinetic group, but no difference in incidence of brain damage was found between the two groups. The significance of these results is discussed.
