Acute dystonia is a movement disorder that is characterized by involuntary muscle contractions. It is a side effect of certain medications, such as antidopaminergic agents. The symptoms of acute dystonia include atypical posture or position of muscles, which occurs within a few days of taking these medications.

Dystonia is a movement disorder that causes the muscles to contract involuntarily. This causes repetitive or twisting movements. The condition affects one part of the body (focal dystonia), two or more adjacent parts (segmental dystonia), or all parts of the body (general dystonia). The muscle spasms range from mild to severe and are painful, interfering with daily tasks.

There is no cure for dystonia; however, medications and therapy help improving symptoms. Surgery is sometimes used to disable or regulate nerves or certain brain regions in people with severe dystonia.
