Prevalence of the rabbit syndrome

R Yassa et al. Am J Psychiatry. 1986 May.

Abstract

Among 266 chronic inpatients receiving neuroleptics, six of the 137 (4.4%) receiving neuroleptics alone and none of the 129 receiving concomitant anticholinergics manifested the rabbit syndrome. Procyclidine resolved the signs of all affected patients. The syndrome's potential prevalence remains unknown.
