Designating first full week in May as Tardive Dyskinesia Awareness Week

This Senate Resolution designates the first full week in May as Tardive Dyskinesia (TD) Awareness Week. It aims to raise awareness about TD - a condition causing uncontrollable facial or body movements linked to long-term antipsychotic use - among healthcare providers, patients, and caregivers. The resolution emphasizes the importance of early screening and education, noting that many affected individuals remain undiagnosed. As a symbolic measure, it does not create new laws but encourages alignment with clinical guidelines for TD detection and management.
