    Neuroleptics are molecules that act on the nervous system by modulating both agitation and neuronal activity. These drugs have an effect countering the transmission of a neuromediator.

    These side effects are numerous, among them there is tardive dyskinesia, including akathisia (a state of agitation, distress, and restlessness). This can be corrected by the administration of benzodiazepines such as lorazepam.
