*In summary, our data show that nicotine treatment decreases haloperidol-induced VCMs [vacuous chewing movements] in an established rat model of tardive dyskinesia. The demonstration that nicotine removal leads to a return of VCMs, whereas nicotine re-exposure reduced haloperidol-induced VCMs, suggests a causal relationship. These data have clinical applications for the treatment of tardive dyskinesias associated with long-term antipsychotic treatment using nicotine.
