HR 220 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A Resolution designating the week of May 4 through 10, 2025, as "Tardive Dyskinesia Awareness Week" in Pennsylvania.

This resolution designates May 4-10, 2025, as "Tardive Dyskinesia Awareness Week" in Pennsylvania. It aims to raise public and medical awareness about tardive dyskinesia (TD), an involuntary movement disorder linked to long-term use of certain medications (like antipsychotics) for mental health or gastrointestinal conditions. The resolution does not create new laws or funding but encourages greater recognition of TD, which affects an estimated 800,000 people in the U.S. and often goes undiagnosed. It directly supports individuals living with TD and healthcare providers monitoring for symptoms.
